ABSTRACT
@#<p style="text-align justify;"><strong>OBJECTIVE:
</strong> To report a case series of Tessier 3, 4, 7 and combined 4,7 craniofacial clefts, their clinical presentations, surgical approaches and outcomes in light of the current literature.<br /><strong>METHODS:
</strong><br /><strong>Design:
</strong> Case series<br /><strong>Setting:
</strong> Tertiary Government Hospital<br /><strong>Subjects:
</strong> Five patients<br /><strong>RESULTS:
</strong> Five patients aged 3 to 14-years-old with Tessier 3, 4 (2 cases), 7 and combined 4,7 were included in this study Tessier 3 - medial orbitomaxillary cleft extending through the bony skeleton traversing obliquely across the lacrimal groove, Tessier 4 - median orbitomaxillary cleft traversing vertically through the inferior eyelid, infraorbital rim and orbital floor extending to the lip between the philtral crest and the oral commissure (2 cases), Tessier 7 - macrostomia and cleft oral commissure and combined Tessier 4 and 7, combining features described above. Four underwent 2- or 3-stage surgeries while one declined.<br /><strong>CONCLUSION:
</strong> Five craniofacial clefts were presented. Because of the varying patterns of craniofacial deformities, a series of surgical procedures, tailor-made for each individual were performed on four. Otolaryngologists who perform maxillofacial and cosmetic surgery should have good background knowledge about craniofacial defects and be familiar with the surgical approaches at their disposal to yield favorable results that are appropriate to their local contexts.</p>
