We usually mainly say that so-and-so is a few degrees of cleft lip, bilateral or unilateral cleft lip, complete or incomplete cleft lip, etc., most of the cleft lip babies see the cleft lip is skewed.
Cleft lip can be divided into the following according to the location:
Unilateral: complete, incomplete.
Bilateral: complete, incomplete, mixed (complete on one side, incomplete on the other).
Median fissure: may or may not be accompanied by a median nasal fissure.
Like this baby, it is a mild median cleft of the upper lip, which is a dehiscence of tissue at the midline of the upper lip. The cause is mainly due to two spherical sudden fertility disorders at the 6th week of the embryo, resulting in partial or total failure to thaw, which is not common. The median cleft of the upper lip is often accompanied by nasal clefts, and occasionally there are columella, nasal septum, anterior tooth germs, anterior lip and lacial defects, and double nose.
To the mild cleft upper lip in the above** baby, we need to repair the lip cleft and defective lip frenulum well, and that's it.
