RESUMEN
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the method to correct the seconary nasolabial deformities after the surgical treatment in the patients with bilateral cleft lip.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From January 2000 to June 2003, forty patients with secondary deformities following repair of bilateral cleft lip were treated with a combined treatment procedures. AU of the forty cases underwent the following preoperative treatments: alveolar bone graft in 28 cases, preoperative orthodontics in 22 cases, prosthodontics in 20 cases and orthognathic surgery or distraction osteogenesis treatment in 20 cases, respectively. In order to improve the enlongation of nasal column, reconstruction of Cupid's bow, philtrum and correction procedures, continuous incision was made from the vermilion in median of the upper lip, the scar edge, the bilateral sides of the nasal column to the inner side of the nose, even extending the bilateral incision to nasolabial groove and nostril fundus.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Forty patients were got the follow-ups for 3 months to 3.5 years and the satisfactory rate reached 95%.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>It is natural to emphasize the setting up of odontomaxillary frame and then utilize the surgical procedure to correct the secondary nasolabial parenchyma deformities. The method could be feasible and reliable for the correction of the secondary nasolabial parenchyma deformities after bilateral cleft lip repair.</p>
