Palatal Protective Stents Prevent Oro-Nasal Fistulas after Surgery for Velopharyngeal Insufficiency: A Preliminary Report

open access: yesDentistry Journal, 2018
Background: One of the potential complications of surgery for velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) is postoperative oral-nasal fistula (ONF). Reported rates vary from 0 to 60%. Several factors are on account of these disproportionate rates.

Monogenic Versus Multifactorial Inheritance in the Development of Isolated Cleft Palate: A Whole Genome Sequencing Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Craniofacial morphogenesis is highly complex, as is the anatomical region involved. Errors during this process, resulting in orofacial clefts, occur in more than 400 genetic syndromes.

Mandibular growth in infants with Robin sequence treated with the Tübingen palatal plate

open access: yesHead & Face Medicine, 2019
Background Robin sequence (RS) is characterized by mandibular retrognathia, glossoptosis and upper airway obstruction. Whether mandibular catch-up growth may occur in RS is yet controversial.

Study protocol for a multicenter, multinational, observational registry of epidemiology, treatment and outcome of patients with Robin sequence

open access: yesHead & Face Medicine, 2023
Background Robin sequence (RS) is a congenital condition characterized by micrognathia, glossoptosis and upper airway obstruction. Diagnosis and treatment are characterized by heterogeneity, resulting in a lack of uniformly collected data.

Dental Implant Treatment for a Patient with Bilateral Cleft Lip and Palate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Dental reconstruction in the cleft space is difficult in some patients with cleft lip and palate because of oronasal fistulas. Most of these patients receive a particle cancellous bone marrow (PCBM) graft to close the alveolar cleft, and secondary bone ...

Targeted Re-Sequencing of the 2p21 Locus Identifies Non-Syndromic Cleft Lip Only Novel Susceptibility Gene ZFP36L2

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
rs7590268 present on the 2p21 locus was identified to be associated with non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) in several populations, including the Chinese Han population, indicating that 2p21 was a susceptibility locus for NSCL ...

Three-dimensional reconstruction of systematic histological sections: application to observations on palatal shelf elevation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Oral Science, 2021
Normal mammalian secondary palate development undergoes a series of processes, including palatal shelf (PS) growth, elevation, adhesion and fusion, and palatal bone formation. It has been estimated that more than 90% of isolated cleft palate is caused by

Pbx loss in cranial neural crest, unlike in epithelium, results in cleft palate only and a broader midface. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Orofacial clefting represents the most common craniofacial birth defect. Cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) is genetically distinct from cleft palate only (CPO).
