Abstract

|
|
We experienced 17 cases of Abbe Flap operation in the secondary cledft lip deformities. The 10 patients were unilateral clefts and 7 were bilateral clefts.
All cases were inserted to the centeral portion of upper lip.
The flap designs employed included isosceles triangle, trapezoid, "M" and modified "M" form.
The isosceles triangular flap anf trapezoid falp were used in the unilateral cleft lip deformities without nasal deformity.
In the unilateral cleft lip deformity with depressed nasal floor, modified "M" form flap was consuderably good result and easily supplied repair of depressed nasal floor.
In the bilateral cleft lip deformity with nasal deformity, "M" form flap was employed and accomplished with columella elongation easily.
About 3-6 months later, following accompanying operation eg, rhinoplasty, maxillary repaire and etc., could be added to obtain the best result.
