The whole process of cleft palate surgery

The whole procedure of cleft palate surgery is anesthesia and palatoplasty. 1.Anesthesia. Cleft palate surgery is usually performed using endotracheal intubation, oral intubation or nasal intubation. 2. Palatoplasty, which can be divided into three types of surgery. (1) Single-flap surgery: first, on one side of the pterygomandibular ligament medial bypassing the maxillary tuberosity of the medial-posterior, make a curved incision to the opposite side of the pterygomandibular ligament slightly medial to the peel mucoperiosteal flap, to the posterior to extend the extension of the soft palate, layered sutures to close the soft palate. (2) Lift muscle reconstruction surgery: the soft palate muscle group was freed from the abnormal attachment at the posterior border of the infant to form a posterior bundle of muscle fibers, and then rotated centrally to intertwine the opposing ends and suture the mucoperiosteal flap together. (3) Reverse double z-flap transfer of the soft palate: an oblique incision is made on the oral mucosal surface behind the cleft margin to form a z-shaped tissue flap, then two dyadic triangular tissue flaps of different levels are formed on the nasal side, and finally the dyadic tissue flaps of the nasal and oral surfaces are sutured together with a cross-transferred suture. There are various types of cleft palate surgery depending on the location and extent of the cleft palate, and it is advisable to consult your doctor after a checkup at the hospital.
