Abstract

This is a report of a national survey into cleft management which was carried out in the spring of 1988. Responses were received from 45 cleft teams in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. A summary of the results is presented covering aspects of neonatal care, presurgical orthopaedics, primary and secondary surgical procedures and orthodontic management. In a majority of centres treatment management is discussed at interdisciplinary combined clinics. A wide range of timings and techniques is used for both surgical and orthodontic therapy.
