Title

Use of fat grafting in cleft lip surgery

Abstract

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the post-operative cosmetic effect of fat aspirated from buccal fat pad and injected into deficient areas at the time of primary unilateral cleft repair in infants. Methodology: Data from 10 subjects who had undergone surgical repair of cleft lip was analyzed retrospectively. 5 had received the processed fat graft during surgery, and 5 did not receive any graft. Postoperatively clinical evaluation of the overall appearance of face, upper lip, nose and midface of the infants was done using a Likert type scale by a blinded independent calibrated observer. Results: Statistical analysis of the results by Mann Whitney U test showed that appearance of the face was not significantly improved (p=0.45), but was significantly improved in upper lip (p=0.03), nose (p=0.012) and midface (p=0.04). Conclusion: It may be inferred from the above study that fat grafting may appear to enhance the esthetic outcome in the local anatomical region of the cleft.
