Abstract

This article reviews clefts involving the lip with or without the palate (CLP±P) and isolated clefts of the palate (CP) from genetic and epidemiologic perspectives. Particular attention is given to management strategies to address issues arising in the neonatal period before the deformity is treated. The multidisciplinary team is especially important in tailoring care to the needs of the child. Regional specialist services are recommended during early childhood for infants who have CLP±P or CP.
