[Medico-genetic counselling and surgical correction of different forms of facial clefts in children].
In the paper, consideration is given to the necessity of a medicogenetic counselling of children with different forms of facial cleft as an important stage in the therapeutic policy permitting carrying out differential diagnosis with a syndromological approach, verifying the diagnose made, calculating a returned genetic risk for the family, and formulating a policy of administering prophylaxis of birth of a child with cleft lip, alveolar process, hard and soft palate. Special stress is laid on staging of surgical treatment of children presenting with the developmental defect under consideration, the need for colleagues in multiple disciplines, such as maxillofacial surgeon, orthodontist, logopedist, otolaryngologist, pediatrician, genetician, psychologist, which measures will, we believe, help in securing a successful rehabilitation and social adaptation of a child.
