Abstract

Description and successful management of a patient with Tessier no. 0 and 1 facial cleft is being presented. This bizarre coexistence of two of the rare facial clefts in a single patient deserves a place in the cleft database. Appropriate evaluation was done to rule out the presence of median cleft face syndrome. Lip cleft was repaired by straight line technique with staggering at the vermilion border. Nasal cleft was reconstructed by replacing the missing lower lateral cartilage with conchal cartilage via endonasal approach. Satisfactory outcome was achieved for this singular deformity by conforming to the basic tenets of plastic surgery.
