OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to assess the need for secondary palatal corrective surgery in a concept of palate repair that uses a protocol of anterior to posterior closure of primary palate, hard palate and soft palate.
METHODS: A data base of patients primarily operated between 2001 and 2021 at the Craniofacial and Cleft Care Center of the University Goettingen was evaluated. Cleft lips had been repaired using Tennison Randall and Veau-Cronin procedures in conjunction with alveolar cleft repair. Cleft palate repair in CLP patients was accomplished in two steps with repair of primary palate and hard palate first using vomer flaps at the age of 10-12 months and subsequent soft palate closure using Veau/two-flap procedures 3 months later. Isolated cleft palate repair was performed in a one-stage operation using Veau/two-flap procedures. Data on age, sex, type of cleft, date and type of surgery, occurrence and location of oronasal fistulae, date and type of secondary surgery performed for correction of oronasal fistula (ONF)and / or Velophyaryngeal Insufficiency (VPI) were extracted. The rate of skeletal corrective surgery was registered as a proxy for surgery induced facial growth disturbance.
RESULTS: In the 195 patients with non-syndromic complete CLP evaluated, a total number of 446 operations had been performed for repair of alveolar cleft and cleft palate repair (Veau I through IV). In 1 patient (0,5%), an ONF occurred requiring secondary repair. Moreover, secondary surgery for correction of VPI was required in 1 patient (0,5%) resulting in an overall rate of 1% of secondary palatal surgery. Skeletal corrective surgery was indicated in 6 patients (19,3%) with complete CLP in the age group of 15 - 22 years (n = 31).
CONCLUSIONS: The presented data have shown that two-step sequential cleft palate closure of primary palate and hard palate first followed by soft palate closure has been associated with minimal rate of secondary corrective surgery for ONF and VPI at a relatively low need for surgical skeletal correction.
