Lip Reconstruction with Abbe Flap The patient was born with bilateral cleft lip and palate, which was repaired when he was an infant. He has had a residual whistling deformity. Mustache growth was also absent on the prolabium. He wishes to undergo flat nose correction. He has a collapsed columella and stunted prolabium with a short upper lip. His prolabium was dissected and used to reconstruct the collapsed columella and raise his flat nose. An Abbe flap harvested from his lower lip was used to reconstruct the resultant upper lip defect.

Bilateral Cleft Lip Surgery This little boy had a congenital bilateral cleft lip and palate deformity. His parents were very upset at this. They had been counseled regarding cleft deformities and sent to our hospital for corrective surgery. His bilateral cleft lip deformity was addressed first. At the age of 3 months, he underwent a single stage repair utilizing Paul Black’s technique. No cross incision was made at the prolabium. Available prolabium and columella were utilized for reconstructing the philtral column and Cupid’s bow. This was followed by creation of the nasal floor and vermillion. Bilateral C-flaps were utilized for this. This was followed by meticulous three layer closure of the cleft lip under loupe magnification. Orbicularis oris muscle was approximated at the midline. This was followed by approximation of the subcutaneous tissue and skin. Her parents were extremely happy with the results of the surgery. #bilateralcleftlipandpalate #cleftlip #cleftlipandpalate #drsmbalaji #smbalaji #balajidental #maxillofacialsurgery (at Balaji Dental and Craniofacial Hospital) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_e5Lq2hyXh/?igshid=1dkdhrlf7yrf5

Bilateral cleft lip repair This little girl was born with a bilateral cleft lip and palate deformity. Her distressed parents were referred to our hospital for surgical management. It was explained to them that the first step of rehabilitation involved uniting the bilateral cleft lip. This would be done as a single stage surgery. Using Paul Black’s technique and without making a cross incision on the prolabium, the available prolabium and stunted columella were utilized to recreate the philtral column and Cupid’s bow of the lip. Bilateral C-flaps were then raised to reconstruct the nasal floor and the vermillion. This was followed by meticulous three-layer closure under loupe magnification. The orbicularis oris was approximated at the midline followed by the subcutaneous tissue and skin. Her parents were extremely happy with the results of the surgery. #bilateralcleftlipandpalate #cleftlip #cleftlipandpalate #drsmbalaji #smbalaji #balajidental #maxillofacialsurgery (at Balaji Dental and Craniofacial Hospital) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_UCF1JBs4y/?igshid=1qd6x1o2rmmfo

Abbe flap repair This lady was born with a bilateral cleft lip, palate and alveolus deformity and had undergone surgical repair. She now has a collapsed columella and a shortened prolabium that has led to a whistling deformity with exposure of her maxillary anterior teeth. She underwent a prolabium flap repositioning to reconstruct the shortened columella. An Abbe flap reconstruction of the residual prolabium defect was then performed. This resulted in complete correction of her deformities. Her entire facial appearance was transformed by her surgery. She expressed her happiness at the results of her surgery, which has given her a beautiful nose. #abbeflap #balajidental #smbalaji #drsmbalaji #bilateralcleftlipandpalate #mustache #cleftlip #cleftlipandpalate (at Balaji Dental and Craniofacial Hospital) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_KdsLjBR_-/?igshid=16pie0vz89y1e
