title: [One-staged correction of alveolar cleft and lip and nasal deformities secondary to lip cleft].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate individualized one-staged correction of alveolar cleft and lip and nasal deformities secondary to lip cleft.
  
  
  METHODS
  The alveolar cleft and lip and nasal deformities secondary to lip cleft were corrected in one stage.
  
  
  RESULTS
  From 2004 to 2007, 37 cases were treated. 33 patients were treated successfully with primary healing in bony recipient area. Cancellous bone exposure happened in 3 cases. The wounds healed after debridement and drainage. The cosmetic results were satisfactory.
