title: Long follow-up of cranofacial cleft treated by the folded vascularized calvarial bone.
abstract: Craniofacial clefts are relatively rare. Tessier proposed a classification of craniofacial clefts. A Tessier no. 10 cranial facial defect is very rare. There are few reports regarding the reconstruction of the orbital rim and roof of a Tessier number 10 cleft. In this paper, we present the reconstruction of the orbital rim and roof by a folded vascularized calvarial bone and the long-term follow-up results.
