Abstract

Cleft lip nose deformity is usually left to secondary correction when the patient has grown up. This paper describes the special technique developed for correcting drooping of the upper margin of the nostril, which is the commonest and most conspicuous among the cleft lip nose deformities. It is featured by a short marginal incision, wide undermining and a special method of fixation. Postsurgical care to maintain the corrected nasal shape is also emphasized. This technique proved useful after experience with 25 patients.
