Abstract
Surgical repair of cleft palate is quite difficult because it aims not only to eliminate the anatomical defect of the palate, but also to ensure normal functioning, including speech. Moreover, successful surgery implies no or minimal deformation of the middle face that can be corrected in the late postoperative period. No doubt that primary surgery (both in terms of technique and time) is crucial for further growth and development of the maxilla. However, surgical techniques and the age of primary cleft palate repair vary between different clinics, which makes this literature review highly relevant. Key words: cleft palate repair, cleft palate, congenital cleft lip and palate
