[Case of cleft palate].
The present paper briefly outlines the pathogenesis of cleft palate and proposes a classification system for cleft palate since both are considered essential for the understanding and assessment of its sequelae. The Authors describe one case of cleft palate. Cleft palate patients present functional and aesthetic alterations in the maxillomandibular area that often require prosthetic correction. Given the features of these malformations therapy and rehabilitation should be programmed as soon as possible after birth and the plastic surgeon should be informed of the factors that cause the malformations and influence the growth of such patients.
