ABSTRACT

Introducción: el labio y paladar hendido es la malformación craneofacial congénita más frecuente y es producida por una falla en la fusión de procesos faciales durante periodos iniciales en el desarrollo embrionario. Objetivo: el objetivo de la ortopedia prequirúrgica es facilitar la primera intervención para la corrección de esta condición de manera que disminuya el trauma quirúrgico, al obtener una menor formación de cicatrices y menor riesgo de complicaciones postquirúrgicas, además de ayudar a obtener una óptima deglución en el paciente para mejorar el aspecto nutricional en el bebé. Material y métodos: el paciente fue llevado a la clínica a las dos semanas de nacido para la toma de impresión y colocación de un aparato ortopédico; se le colocó el NAM (nasoalveolar molding), la cinta transport, además se realizaban citas una vez al mes para evaluar el stent nasal, activarlo y revisar que la colocación de la cinta estuviese correcta, así como para comprobar que la alimentación del bebé estuviera mejorando. Resultados: se observa una mejoría anatómica y fisiológica, también una disminución de la fisura labial de 6 mm y una remodelación nasal. Se notó una mejora en deglución y alimentación con ganancia de peso. Conclusiones: la ortopedia prequirúrgica con el NAM es una terapia aceptable y recomendable para los pacientes con labio y paladar hendido, ya que nos ayudan a generar mejores resultados quirúrgicos, además de colaborar con el aspecto nutricional del bebe (AU)


Introduction: cleft lip and palate is a craniofacial malformation most frequent congenital and is produced by a failure to fuse facial processes during early periods in embryonic development. Objective: the objective of pre-surgical orthopedics is to facilitate the first intervention for the correction of this condition, reducing surgical trauma, obtaining less scar formation and less risk of post-surgical complications, in addition to helping the patient obtain better swallowing to improve the nutritional aspect in the baby. Material and methods: the patient came to the clinic at two weeks of age for impression taking and placement of the orthopedic device. The NAM (nasoalveolar molding) and the transport tape were placed and appointments were made once a month to evaluate the nasal stent, activate it and check that the placement of the tape was correct, as well as to check that the baby's feeding was improving. Results: an anatomical and physiological improvement is observed, as well as a 6mm decrease in the cleft lip and nasal remodeling. An improvement in swallowing and feeding with weight gain was observed. Conclusions: pre-surgical orthopedics with NAM is an acceptable and recommended therapy for patients with cleft lip and palate since it helps us to generate better surgical results in addition to collaborating with the nutritional aspect of the baby (AU)

ABSTRACT

The prevention, prenatal diagnosis and postnatal treatment of cleft lip and palate form a comprehensive treatment process requiring multidisciplinary participation. Prevention and treatment of cleft lip and palate involve multiple disciplines. The timing of professional intervention often cross and overlap, intervention and the sequence of treatment had a great influence on the outcome of the treatment. In the meantime, under the premise of the change of national fertility policy, the reproductive needs of families with cleft lip and palate, such as fertility intervention and diagnosis etc., should be paid attention to through the whole chain of pre-pregnant, prenatal and post-natal interventions. Therefore, this paper proposes a multidisciplinary treatment process for the comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of cleft lip and palate. It primarily combs and standardizes the discipline composition, data preparation, consultation contents, personnel, time and technical points of the consultation records of the multidisciplinary treatment in antenatal, postnatal, infant, adolescent, adult and reproductive stages of cleft lip and palate.

ABSTRACT

Pierre Robin sequence is a set of congenital conditions characterized by the presence of micrognathia, glossoptosis, cleft palate and obstruction of the airways. The latter can lead to many other complications such as respiratory difficulties, apnea, weight loss and even death. Currently, mandibular distraction, or the lengthening of the mandibular bone, is the most common surgical procedure used to correct a retracted tongue and the airway obstruction it produces in patients with mandibular hypoplasia. The present paper reports the case of a 26-day-old male patient, who presented obstruction on the upper respiratory tract, mandibular retromicrognathia, and retracted tongue and cleft palate, all conditions characteristic to Pierre Robin sequence. The patient also had a medical record of orotracheal intubation due to respiratory difficulties. The subject underwent mandibular distraction surgery with a horizontal vector, which resulted in a satisfactorily cleared airway.


La secuencia de Pierre Robin es una afección congénita caracterizada por la presencia de micrognatia, glosoptosis, paladar hendido y obstrucción de la vía aérea, siendo ésta una de las principales características de la cual derivan varias complicaciones, entre ellas, dificultad respiratoria, apnea, pérdida de peso y hasta la muerte. En la actualidad la distracción ósea mandibular es la técnica quirúrgica de elección, que tiene como finalidad el alargamiento mandibular corrigiendo la posición posterior de la lengua, con la consecuente desobstrucción de la vía aérea en pacientes con hipoplasia mandibular. Se reporta caso clínico de paciente masculino con 26 días de nacido, que presentó obstrucción de la vía aérea superior, retromicrognatismo mandibular, retracción de la lengua y hendidura palatina, relacionado con la secuencia de Pierre Robin, con antecedentes de intubación orotraqueal por dificultad respiratoria, al cual se le realizó distracción ósea mandibular con vector horizontal, destacando resultados satisfactorios en la resolución de la obstrucción de la vía aérea.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Concentrated growth factor (CGF) is an autogenuous product that contains highly concentrated number of platelets and can be derived from venous blood by selective centrifugation. It has been speculated that local growth factors in human platelets (insulinlike growth factor, IGF; transforming growth factor, TGF-b; platelet derived growth factor, PDGF) would enhance healing of grafts and also counteract resorption. The osteogensis effect of CGF and acellular dermal matrix (ADM) for alveolar cleft defects was evaluated in this study. Twenty alveolar cleft patients were divided randomly into two groups. One group underwent guided bone regeneration (GBR) using acellular dermal matrix film combined with alveolar bone grafting using iliac crest bone grafts (GBR group), while the other group underwent alveolar bone grafting combined with CGF (CGF group). Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images were obtained at 1 week and 6 months following the procedure. Using Mimics 17.0 software, the bone resorption rate and bone density improvement rate were calculated and compared between the two groups. Although not significant between ADM and CGF in bone resorption rate, the bone density improvement in cases with CGF(61.62 ± 4.728%) was much better than in cases with ADM (27.05 ± 5.607%) (p = 0.0002). Thus, CGF could be recommended to patients with alveolar cleft as a better choice.

ABSTRACT

As fissuras labiopalatais são malformações faciais com sequelas funcionais e estéticas que causam grande impacto na qualidade de vida dos pacientes. O tratamento desses indivíduos requer uma abordagem multidisciplinar, incluindo tratamento plástico cirúrgico, fonoaudiológico e psicológico, além das intervenções odontológicas, ortodônticas e protéticas. Este relato de caso apresentou a reabilitação protética de uma paciente de 57 anos com fissura palatina anterior, com remoção da pré-maxila. Após vários tratamentos, a paciente ainda não havia sido reabilitada, apresentando deformidades provenientes dos tratamentos anteriores incompletos. Uma prótese parcial removível retida por dentes e implantes osseointegrados foi executada, promovendo a melhora na aparência facial, na função mastigatória, na fala e, consequentemente, na qualidade de vida da paciente.


Cleft lip and palate, which is a facial malformation with both functional and aesthetic characteristics, may have a large impact on the lives of those affected. Its correction requires an interdisciplinary approach, which includes surgical, orthodontic and prosthetic treatments. This clinical report presents the prosthetic rehabilitation of a 57-year-old woman with an anterior cleft palate defect that had not been closed completely with surgical repair. In this way, an implant-supported, retained removable partial prosthesis was delivered to improve the patient's facial aspect, masticatory function, speech, and her quality of life.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Premaxilla, in its early descriptions, had the participation of Goethe. In our face, in a certain period of growth and development processes, premaxilla is an independent and, then, a semi-independent bone to finally be totally integrated to the maxilla. Formation of the premaxilla acts as a stabilization element inside the facial skeleton comparable to the cornerstone of a Roman arch and is closely related to the development of human face and its abnormal growth with characteristic malformations. Until when the premaxillary-maxillary suture remains open and offers opportunities to orthopedically influence facial growth to exert influence over facial esthetics and function? Contact with preliminary results in 1183 skulls from anatomic museums at USP, Unicamp and Unifesp led us to question therapeutic perspectives and its clinical applicability.


RESUMO A descrição inicial da pré-maxila teve a participação de Goethe. Na face, em determinado período do crescimento e desenvolvimento, têm-se a pré-maxila como um osso independente e, depois, semi-independente para, finalmente, se integrar totalmente à maxila. A formação da pré-maxila atua como um elemento estabilizador dentro do esqueleto facial, comparável com a pedra angular de um arco romano, e está intimamente relacionada com o desenvolvimento da face humana e seu crescimento anormal, com malformações características. Até quando a sutura pré-maxilar-maxilar continua aberta e oferece oportunidades para se influenciar ortopedicamente o crescimento facial e modificar a estética e função da face? O contato com estudos preliminares em 1.183 crânios de museus anatômicos da USP, Unicamp e Unifesp nos induziu a questionar sobre as perspectivas terapêuticas e aplicabilidades clínicas.

ABSTRACT

Background: The true incidence of Craniofacial cleft (CFC) is unknown because of their scarcity and because of the difficulty in recognizing sometimes subtle physical findings in mild malformations. Craniofacial anomalies in the African population are reported infrequently. Aim: To contribute to the general literature on rare CFC in Uganda and Africa. Methods: we conducted a retrospective search of patient data over the period 2005 to May 2017 in the unit of plastic surgery of CoRSU (Comprehensive Rehabilitation Service in Uganda) hospital, a tertiary hospital in Uganda. Patient with a diagnosis of CFC were picked out. Sixty-six patient's files with clinical diagnosis of CFC including their clinical photographs were found. Frequency data was generated and a frequency distribution table with the observed data was constructed. Results: Sex distribution showed no significant difference between male and female (1:1,2);the age on admission ranged from 1 day to 83 years; according to the laterality of the cleft, unilateral CFC (left or right side) are more common than midline clefts (Tessier 0; 14; 0,14;30); however, according to the clinical type, Tessier cleft (TC) 0 is the most common TC in our series and is associated with holoprosencephaly. Fifty percent of CFC in our series are syndromic. TC 7 are common in male and have a bilateral predilection. Conclusion: CFC are a rare set of malformations for which there is a paucity of literature. There is a need to conduct a study with a larger series including CT-Scan in order to analyze more accurate clinical diagnosis

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the skeletal and dental effects of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) in cleft patients using two types of expanders. Methods: Twenty unilateral cleft lip and palate patients were randomly divided into two groups, according to the type of expander used: (I) modified Hyrax and (II) inverted Mini-Hyrax. A pretreatment cone-beam computed tomographic image (T0) was taken as part of the initial orthodontic records and three months after RME, for bone graft planning (T1). Results: In general, there was no significant difference among groups (p > 0.05). Both showed a significant transverse maxillary expansion (p < 0.05) and no significant forward and/or downward movement of the maxilla (p > 0.05). There was greater dental crown than apical expansion. Maxillary posterior expansion tended to be larger than anterior opening (p < 0.05). Cleft and non-cleft sides were symmetrically expanded and there was no difference in dental tipping between both sides (p > 0.05). Conclusions: The appliances tested are effective in the transverse expansion of the maxilla. However, these appliances should be better indicated to cleft cases also presenting posterior transverse discrepancy, since there was greater expansion in the posterior maxillary region than in the anterior one.


RESUMO Objetivo: o objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar os efeitos esqueléticos e dentários da expansão rápida da maxila (ERM) em pacientes fissurados, utilizando dois tipos de disjuntores. Métodos: vinte pacientes com fissura labiopalatal unilateral foram aleatoriamente divididos em dois grupos, de acordo com o tipo de aparelho utilizado: (1) Hyrax modificado e (2) Mini-Hyrax invertido. Tomografias computadorizadas de feixe cônico foram obtidas antes do tratamento (T0), como parte da documentação ortodôntica inicial, e três meses após a ERM, para o planejamento de enxertia óssea (T1). Resultados: não houve diferença significativa entre os grupos (p>0,05). Ambos apresentaram significativa expansão transversal da maxila (p<0,05), sem significativa movimentação anterior e/ou inferior da maxila (p>0,05). Houve uma maior expansão transversal das coroas em relação à expansão nos ápices. A tendência observada foi uma maior expansão na região posterior da maxila, em comparação à anterior (p<0,05). Avaliando o deslocamento dos lados fissurado e não fissurado, a expansão ocorreu de maneira simétrica e não houve diferença na inclinação dentária entre os lados (p>0,05). Conclusões: os aparelhos testados são eficazes na expansão transversal da maxila em pacientes fissurados. Porém, esses aparelhos seriam melhor indicados para casos de fissura labiopalatal com atresia transversal posterior, uma vez que a expansão foi maior na região posterior da maxila do que na região anterior.

ABSTRACT

Abstract: the aim of this pilot study was to evaluate the effect of Presurgical Orthopedics (PSO) on the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in Children with Cleft Lip and Palate (CLP) treated in two hospitals in Chile using the Spanish version of the Child Oral Health Impact Profile (COHIP-Sp). Method: Cross-sectional study, involving 42 children with CLP (mean age 12 +/- 2.1 years; 28 men) who attended their annual checkup at the main Hospital of Valdivia and at the Hospital Fundacion Gantz in Santiago, Chile, between March and April 2016. Those who met the selection criteria were applied the COHIP-Sp scale. Based on their medical records, patients who used PSO as treatment protocol were classified as "PSO". Those who did not receive treatment with the appliance were classified as "Non- PSO". The score of the COHIP-Sp scale and its domains between the two groups was compared (t-test, p<0.05). Results: Twenty-five patients (59.5 percent) used PSO. COHIP-Sp score was 91.7 +/- 26.2 points in the PSO group, and 81.2 +/- 30.9 points in the Non-PSO group. There was no statistically significant difference (p=0.24). Conclusion: OHRQoL of patients with CLP treated with PSO was similar to that of patients not treated with PSO.


Resumen: el objetivo de este estudio piloto fue evaluar el efecto de la Ortopedia Pré-Quirúrgica Infantil (OPQI) sobre la calidad de vida relacionada con salud oral (CVRSO) en niños con Fisura Labio Palatina (FLP) tratados en dos hospitales de Chile usando la versión española del Child Oral Health Impact Profile (COHIP-Sp). Método: Estudio de corte transversal. Participaron 42 niños y niñas con FLP (edad promedio 12 +/- 2.1 años; 28 hombres) que asistieron a su control anual del Hospital Base de Valdivia y la Fundación Gantz en Santiago entre marzo y abril del año 2016. A quienes cumplieron los criterios de selección, se les aplicó la escala COHIP-Sp. Basándose en las fichas clínicas, se clasificó como "OPQI" aquellos pacientes que usaron OPQI como protocolo de tratamiento; y como grupo "No-OPQI" aquellos que no recibieron el tratamiento con la placa. Se comparó el puntaje de la escala COHIP-Sp y sus dominios entre ambos grupos (t-test, p<0.05). Resultados: Veinticinco pacientes (59.5 por ciento) usaron OPQI. La puntuación COHIP-Sp fue 91.7 +/- 26.2 puntos en el grupo OPQI y 81.2 +/- 30.9 puntos en grupo No-OPQI, diferencia estadísticamente no significativa (p=0.24). Conclusión: La CVRSO de pacientes con FLP tratados con OPQI fue similar a pacientes no tratados con OPQI.

ABSTRACT

La fisura labio-palatina (FLP) es una de las malformaciones congénitas más frecuentes. Si bien la fisura de labio y la fisura de paladar son distintas y pueden presentarse de manera individual o ambas en el mismo individuo, es útil estudiarlas en conjunto. La prevalencia en Argentina es menor que la media informada a nivel mundial. Esta patología requiere un tratamiento continuo y mutidisciplinario, con el fin de disminuir sus secuelas. El Hospital Público Materno Infantil (HPMI) de la provincia de Salta, es el principal centro de referencia que trabaja con niños fisurados de toda la provincia. Dada la diversidad de etnias y regiones geográficas de procedencia de los pacientes, se considera conveniente sistematizar la información. Para ello, se realizó un estudio descriptivo sobre 308 pacientes con FLAP: el sexo más afectado fue el masculino y la mayoría proviene de los Departamentos de Molinos y Los Andes. La fisura más frecuente es la unilateral izquierda completa. El 92,5 por ciento de los pacientes FLAP no presentaron asociación con síndromes y el 28,6 por ciento abandonó el tratamiento ortodóncico-ortopédico, la mayoría antes del primer año de vida. Si bien los datos aportados fueron similares a los de otros autores, ésta es la primera base de datos para la provincia de Salta. La misma permitirá realizar nuevas investigaciones y propone consignar una historia clínica estandarizada para la institución...

ABSTRACT

INTRODUÇÃO: A correção cirúrgica primária do palato é de fundamental importância na reabilitação do indivíduo com fissura labiopalatina e visa tanto a restauração anatômica local, com o fechamento da comunicação existente entre a cavidade nasal e oral, como a restauração funcional do anel velofaríngeo por meio do reposicionamento dos músculos palatinos. Ao longo dos anos, as técnicas de fechamento de palato foram evoluindo progressivamente, utilizando, cada vez mais, o procedimento de reposicionamento da musculatura responsável pelo fechamento do esfíncter velofaríngeo, denominado veloplastia intravelar. Tal procedimento favorece o funcionamento sinérgico da musculatura velar e faríngea, evitando, assim, os sintomas decorrentes da insuficiência velofaríngea. No entanto, apesar de todos os esforços no sentido de conseguir o funcionamento velofaríngeo adequado, intercorrências intraoperatórias e complicações pós-operatórias imediatas e/ou tardias podem contribuir para o insucesso da palatoplastia primária e, consequentemente, levar ao aparecimento de hipernasalidade. MÉTODOS: Sessenta pacientes submetidos à palatoplastia primária com veloplastia intravelar. Intercorrências intraoperatórias e complicações pós-operatórias imediatas e tardias foram investigadas. A presença e localização de fístula ou deiscência do palato foi feita por meio de avaliação clínica. Os pacientes foram submetidos, também, à gravação em áudio de amostra de fala, as quais foram analisadas por três fonoaudiólogas. As intercorrências intraoperatórias e as complicações pós-operatórias foram analisadas de forma descritiva. A associação entre as intercorrências intraoperatórias e complicações imediatas e tardias com a formação de fístulas, bem como a associação entre a ocorrência de fístulas e deiscências com a presença e ausência de hipernasalidade, foram analisadas por meio de Teste de Fisher. RESULTADOS: Verificou-se 5% de intercorrências intraoperatórias, 20% de complicações imediatas e 13,3% de complicações tardias. O índice de fístulas foi de 16,67%. A proporção de hipernasalidade foi de 18,6%. CONCLUSÃO: A palatoplastia com veloplastia intravelar utilizada no presente estudo demonstrou ser uma técnica segura, de fácil execução, eficiente para a fala e com baixos índices de complicações.


INTRODUCTION: The primary surgical correction of the palate is of fundamental importance in the rehabilitation of individuals with labiopalatine cleft and aims for local anatomical restoration and closure of the existing communication between the nasal and oral cavities, such as functional restoration of the velopharyngeal ring through repositioning of the palatine muscles. Palate closure techniques have evolved progressively over the years and increasingly involve repositioning of the muscles responsible for closing the velopharyngeal sphincter, called intravelar veloplasty. This procedure encourages the synergistic operation of the velar and pharyngeal musculature, thereby avoiding the symptoms resulting from velopharyngeal insufficiency. However, despite efforts to achieve adequate velopharyngeal function, intraoperative events and immediate postoperative and/or late complications may contribute to primary palatoplasty failure and consequently lead to hypernasality. METHODS: Sixty patients underwent primary palatoplasty with intravelar veloplasty. Intraoperative events and immediate and late postoperative complications were investigated. The presence and location of palatal fistula or dehiscence was assessed by clinical evaluation. The patients also made an audio recording of their speech that was analyzed by three speech therapists. The intraoperative events and postoperative complications were descriptively analyzed. The association between intraoperative events and immediate and late postoperative complications with the formation of fistulae as well as that between the occurrence of fistulae and dehiscences and the presence and absence of hypernasality was analyzed using Fisher's exact test. RESULTS: Overall, there was a 5% incidence of intraoperative events, 20% incidence of immediate complications, and 13.3% incidence of late complications. Fistulae and hypernasality were found in 16.67% and 18.6% of cases, respectively. CONCLUSION: Palatoplasty with intravelar veloplasty is a safe and easily implemented technique that is efficient for speech and has low complication rates.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this study was to assess maxillary, mandibular and glenoid fossa changes after bone anchored maxillary protraction (BAMP) therapy in patients with unilateral complete cleft lip and palate (UCLP). Methods: The experimental group comprised 24 patients with UCLP and maxillary sagittal deficiency with a mean initial age of 11.8 years. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) exams of 24 patients with UCLP taken before (T1) and 18 months (T1) after beginning BAMP therapy were selected from the files of the Hospital of Rehabilitation of Craniofacial Anomalies. CBCTs were superimposed at the cranial base. Three-dimensional displacements of landmarks placed in surface models were quantified and visualized in color-coded maps and semi-transparency superimpositions. Kolmogorov-smirnov test was used to calculate distribution of normality. Paired t test was used to compare cleft and non-cleft sides (p<0.05). Results: A point and non-cleft central incisor displaced toward anterior (1.66mm), inferior (1.21mm) and to the cleft side. Orbitale, Infraorbitale foramen and maxillary first permanent molar displaced similarly toward anterior, inferior and medial direction. The zygoma displaced similarly toward anterior and inferior, however the cleft side showed a significantly greater lateral displacement compared to the non-cleft side. The superior concavity of the glenoid fossa showed symmetrical displacement toward anterior, lateral and superior, while the anterior and posterior eminences showed symmetrical displacements toward anterior, lateral and inferior. The mandible showed an overall symmetrical inferior and posterior displacement except for the medial pole of the condyle, which showed a significantly greater lateral displacement on the cleft side. Conclusions: Maxilla showed an anterior and inferior displacement. The glenoid fossa and the overall mandible symmetrically displaced downward and backward. The zygoma of the cleft side was the only maxillary landmark to show significantly greater lateral displacement than the non-cleft side, as well as the medial pole of the condyle on the cleft side.(AU)


O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar as alterações da maxila, mandíbula e fossa glenóide após o tratamento com protração maxilar ancorada em osso (BAMP) em pacientes com fissura unilateral completa de lábio e palato (UCLP). Métodos: o grupo experimental foi composto por 24 pacientes com UCLP e deficiência sagital de maxila com idade inicial de 11,8 anos. Foram selecionados exames de tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico (CBCT) de 24 pacientes com fissura UCLP realizadas antes e após 18 meses de terapia com BAMP pertencentes ao Hospital de Reabilitação de Anomalias Craniofaciais. Os exames de CBCT foram sobrepostos pela base do crânio. Deslocamentos tridimensionais foram mensurados por meio de pontos colocados em modelos de superfície, bem como foram visualizados em mapas coloridos e sobreposições de semi-transparência. A distribuição de normalidade foi calculada por meio do teste de Kolmogorov-Smirnov. A comparação entre os lados com e sem fissura foi realizada por meio do teste t pareado (p<0.05). Resultados: O ponto A e o incisivo central superior do lado sem fissura deslocaram para anterior (1.66mm), inferior (1.21mm) e para o lado da fissura. Os pontos Orbitário, Forame Infra-orbitário e os primeiros molares permanentes superiores se deslocaram simetricamente para anterior, inferior e medial. O ponto Zigomático deslocou simetricamente para anterior e inferior, porém o lado da fissura apresentou um deslocamento significantemente maior para lateral comparado ao lado sem fissura. A concavidade superior da fossa glenóide apresentou um deslocamento simétrico para anterior, lateral e superior. As eminências anterior e posterior da fossa glenóide apresentaram um deslocamento simétrico para anterior, lateral e inferior. No geral, não houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre os lados com e sem fissura para o deslocamente inferior e posterior da mandíbula. O polo medial do côndilo foi o único ponto em que o lado da fissura apresentou um deslocamento significantemente maior para lateral quando comparado ao lado sem fissura. Conclusões: A maxila mostrou um deslocamento simétrico para anterior e inferior. A fossa glenóide e a mandíbula mostraram um deslocamento simétrico para inferior e para trás. Entretanto, os pontos zigomático e polo medial apresentaram um deslocamento lateral significantemente maior no lado da fissura.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Introdução: A fissura labiopalatina é a deformidade craniofacial mais frequente e sua incidência é estimada em 1:600 nascidos vivos no Brasil. O objetivo desse estudo é avaliar a incidência de fístulas para os pacientes submetidos à palatoplastia com veloplastia intravelar estendida. Métodos: Trata-se de estudo descritivo retrospectivo com 25 pacientes que foram operados pelo mesmo cirurgião no período de setembro de 2011 a setembro de 2012. A técnica de Von Langenbeck, juntamente com a veloplastia intravelar estendida, foi realizada em todos os pacientes. Foram excluídos do estudo os pacientes com fístulas palatinas, portadores de síndromes ou outras malformações. A idade média da realização da palatoplastia foi de 30,6 meses, variando de 12 meses a 159 meses. Foram selecionados 19 pacientes: onze (58%) do gênero masculino e oito (42%) do gênero feminino. A fissura palatal isolada foi a mais comum, encontrada em nove (47%) pacientes. A fissura transforame esquerda estava presente em sete (37%) pacientes e três (16%) pacientes eram portadores de fissura transforame bilateral. Resultados: Somente dois (11%) pacientes evoluíram com fístula palatina até o acompanhamento pós-operatório de 6 meses. Conclusão: A técnica de Von Langenbeck associada à veloplastia estendida mostrou-se com baixa incidência de fístulas palatinas (11%) quando comparada ao índice encontrado na literatura mundial (7% a 42%).


Introduction: Cleft lip and palate is the most common craniofacial deformity, with an estimated incidence of 1 case per 600 live births in Brazil. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of fistula among patients undergoing palatoplasty with extended intravelar veloplasty. Methods: This retrospective descriptive study evaluated 25 patients operated between September 2011 and September 2012 by the same surgeon. The von Langenbeck technique combined with extended intravelar veloplasty was performed in all patients. The study excluded patients with palatal fistulas, syndromes, or other malformations. The age at palatoplasty varied between 12 and 159 months, and the average age was 30.6 months. Nineteen patients were selected, comprising 11 (58%) male patients and 8 (42%) female patients. Isolated cleft palate was the most common deformity, found in 9 (47%) patients. Unilateral (left) trans-foramen cleft was present in 7 (37%) patients, and bilateral trans-foramen cleft was seen in 3 (16%) patients. Results: Only 2 (11%) patients had palatal fistula in a postoperative follow-up period of 6 months. Conclusion: The von Langenbeck technique associated with extended veloplasty resulted in a low incidence of cleft palate fistulas (11%) compared with the rate found in previous studies (7%-42%).

ABSTRACT

Cleft lip and palate (CLP) are congenital defects caused by faulty fusion of the embryonic processes that participate in the formation of oral and nasal cavities, this leads to a number of functional, social and psychological alterations. The incidence is estimated at 1/700 live birth, resulting in a high cost to the public health system. In 2005 these malformations were incorporated in the Regime of Explicit Health Guarantees (Garantías Explícitas en Salud ­ GES), also known as Plan AUGE, a health program developed in Chile, that has been conceived and implemented to guarantee access, quality, protection and recovery for certain pathologies. To determine which clefts are more prevalent in patients who were treated in the Hospital and compare these results are consistent with international literature, along with which gender is more affected and their association with other syndromes. Medical records of 169 patients with CLP were reviewed. Their gender, type of cleft according to its anatomical classification and their association with other syndromes were recorded. Ten percent of the CLP were associated with syndromes, there being a higher prevalence among male infants (56.8%) than females (43.2%). Incidence of cleft lip, with or without cleft palate, was higher than the incidence of isolated cleft palate. CLP has a heterogeneous distribution. This creates the need to know, which clefts are more prevalent in our patients and to compare with other results.


Las Fisuras Labio Palatinas (FLP) son defectos congénitos causados por una mala fusión de los procesos embrionarios que participan en la formación de las cavidades oral y nasal, que generan una seria de alteraciones funcionales, sociales y pscicológicas. La incidencia de las FLP se estima en 1/700 nacidos vivos, lo que genera un importante gasto a nivel de salud pública. En el 2005 éstas malformaciones fueron incorporadas al "Régimen de Garantías Explícitas en Salud (GES)", también conocido como Plan AUGE, éste es un programa de salud concebido y creado para garantizar el acceso, calidad, protección y recuperación de ciertas patologías. Determinar que fisuras con más prevalentes en pacientes que han sido tratados en el Hospital y comparar estos resultados con la literatura internacional, además determinar que género se ve más afectado y si existe asociación con síndromes. Se revisaron las fichas clínicas de 169 pacientes con FLP. Registrándose el género, el tipo FLP de acuerdo a su clasificación anatómica y la asociación con otros síndromes. Resultados: 10% de las FLP presentaban otro síndrome asociado. Hay una mayor incidencia en el género masculino (56,8%) que en el femenino (43.2%). Las fisuras de labio, con o sin compromiso del paladar, son más frecuentes que las fisuras labiales aisladas. Las FLP tienen una distribución heterogénea. Esto crea la necesidad de conocer que fisuras son más prevalentes en nuestros pacientes con el objetivo de compararlos con otros resultados.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo Correlacionar o desempenho motor oral nas tarefas de diadococinesia, de acordo com o tipo de fissura e com a presença de ceceio na fala, em crianças com fissura labiopalatina, operadas. Métodos Foram estudadas 30 crianças com fissura completa unilateral de lábio e palato e 30 com fissura isolada de palato, operadas, com idade entre 9 e 12 anos. Dois fonoaudiólogos analisaram a repetição de frases com os fones [s] e [z] para identificar a presença de ceceio e a análise da diadococinesia ocorreu a partir do registro da repetição das sílabas “ta” e “ca” e da sequência “pataca”. Na análise, o teste Kappa verificou a concordância entre os avaliadores, o teste Qui-quadrado a frequência de ceceio entre os grupos e o teste t os valores da diadococinesia, segundo o tipo de fissura e a presença de ceceio. Resultados O número de emissões por segundo e os tempos médios entre as emissões não demonstraram diferença significativa entre os grupos. Houve boa concordância entre os avaliadores quanto à presença de ceceio, com maior frequência nos casos com fissura completa unilateral de lábio e palato. A comparação entre os valores da diadococinesia e a presença de ceceio não evidenciou diferença significativa. Conclusão O desempenho nas tarefas da diadococinesia não sofreu alteração segundo o tipo de fissura labiopalatina. A presença de ceceio na fala foi maior no grupo com fissura completa unilateral de lábio e palato, sem modificação, porém, no desempenho das tarefas da diadococinesia. .


Purpose To correlate the performance of the oral motor tasks of diadochokinesis in children with repaired cleft lip and palate to the type of cleft and to the presence of lisp. Methods We studied 30 children, aged 9 to 12 years, with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate and 30 with isolated cleft palate. Two speech language pathologists analyzed repetition phrases with the phones [s] and [z] to identify the presence of lisp. The analysis of diadochokinesis was performed by registering the repetition of the syllables “ta” and “ka” and the sequence “pataka”. The Kappa test was used to verify agreement between the evaluators, the Chi-square test was used to compare the lisp frequency between the groups, and the t-test was used to compare the diadochokinesis values between the same groups as well as between individuals with and without lisp. Results The mean number of emissions per second and the mean time between emissions were not significantly different between groups. Good agreement was observed between the examiners for the presence of lisp in [s] and [z], with the most evident agreement in the complete unilateral cleft lip and palate group. The comparison between the diadochokinesis values and the presence of lisp revealed no significant difference. Conclusion The performance of diadochokinesis tasks did not change according to the type of cleft. Further, the presence of lisp speech was higher in patients with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate, but this did not affect performance of diadochokinesis tasks. .

ABSTRACT

Las Fisuras Labio Palatinas son anomalías congénitas que consisten en una hendidura o separación en el labio superior. Se presentan, frecuentemente, acompañadas de paladar hendido. El presente trabajo tiene por objetivo estudiar la complejidad y grado de adherencia, estudiando el grado de abandono en la rehabilitación del paciente FLAP que concurre a instituciones o servicios adheridos a la Red de Servicios / Instituciones de la Argentina. De un total de 749 pacientes fueron contactados aquellos con más de 200 días de inasistencia al servicio en un total de 162 (21,6%), de los cuales 55 (11,4%) manifestó abandono de tratamiento. El 46,8% de los pacientes no cuentan con cobertura por obra social / prepaga o mutual. El 18,2% posee certificado de discapacidad. El 47,8% de los pacientes requieren entre 1 a 2 horas de traslado para su atención, y el 27,3% más de 2 horas, a lo que se debe sumar los tiempos de espera en las instituciones. Del análisis de las variables seleccionadas se podría estimar que la edad, severidad de la lesión, número de convivientes en el domicilio y ausencia de certificado de discapacidad podrían ser utilizados como indicadores de posible abandono en el tratamiento.


Cleft lip palate is a congenital anomaly consisting of a crack or separation in the upper lip. It is often accompanied by cleft palate. The aims of the study it is to analyze the complexity and degree of rehabilitation adhesion, by abandonment analysis, of the FLAP patient who attends institutions or services belonging to the network of services / institutions in Argentina. A total of 749 patients were contacted those with more than 200 days of absenteeism to the service in a total of 162 (21,6%), of which 55 (11,4%) said abandonment of treatment. 46,8% of patients do not have coverage for work social/insurance/mutual. 18,2% possesses a certificate of disability. 47,8% of patients require between 1-2 hours of transfer for your attention, and 27,3% more than 2 hours, what to add the waiting time at the institutions. Analysis of selected variables you could estimate that the age, severity of injury, number of cohabitants in the domicile and absence of disability certificate could be used as indicators of possible abandonment in the treatment.
