Dr. M. Manjulabai, Dr. P. S. Rajaravi Kumar, Dr. S. Savithri

Abstract :

Cleft lip repair by the standard triangular flap technique gives a prominent, visible zig–zag scar on the cleft side of the upper lip which is cosmetically less acceptable to the public. By taking a simple modification of widening of the base of the triangle, the scar looks very thin, less conspicuous, mimic like a near normal philtral column and well accepted by the patients.
