title: [Physical factors in the combined rehabilitation of children with a congenital cleft of the upper lip].
abstract: A total of 551 children with cleft lips and 136 children with secondary deformations of the upper lip and nose were followed up after cheiloplasty. Electrostimulation of the upper lip, total UV exposure, humisol and pelloidine electrophoresis, and total massage before cheiloplasty decreased the incidence of general and local postoperative complications. Reconstructive cheiloplasty was preceded by lidase or iodine ultraphonophoresis or electrostimulation of the perioral muscles. After surgery a course of magnetic and laser exposure or heparin ultraphonophoresis and local troxevasin were prescribed. This improved both the cosmetic and functional result of the operation.
