Abstract
We report a case of a 6-month-old male that presented with wound dehiscence, in part due to mechanical tongue trauma, following bilateral cleft lip repair. A silastic sheeting dressing with retention sutures was uniquely fashioned to decrease wound tension and protect the surgical site from patient interference. This solution may potentially be used in similar circumstances.
