Comparing single and multiple surgeries for nasal and alveolar repairs in cleft lip and palate patients

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial investigates the effectiveness of a single-stage surgical approach versus a multiple-stage approach for repairing nasal and alveolar deformities in patients with cleft lip and palate. Patients aged 5 to 18 with unilateral cleft lip and palate will be randomly assigned to either receive combined rhinoplasty and alveolar repair or undergo alveolar repair alone with a planned rhinoplasty later. The study will assess outcomes using clinical evaluations, radiological imaging, and standardized surveys to measure cosmetic and functional improvements. The goal is to determine if a single-stage repair offers advantages over traditional staged repairs.
