Anesthetic Exposure in Staged Versus Single-Stage Cleft Lip and Palate Repair: Can we Reduce Risk of Anesthesia-Induced Developmental Neurotoxicity?

TL;DR: It is suggested that single-stage CLP repair can reduce wasted time under general anesthesia and potentially reduce harmful neuronal toxicity in the developmental period in this at-risk population.

Presurgical Treatment of Cleft Lip and Palate Babies with a PNAM Appliance: A Series of Four Case Reports

TL;DR: The objectives of PNAM use in unilateral and bilateral cleft lip and palate patients are to presurgically decrease the severity of the cleft size, maintain a narrower cleft palate, and increase the length of the columella and height of the nostrils.

The prevalence, risk of premature births, mortality and causes of death of cleft lip with or without palate in South Korea: a nationwide population-based cohort study.

TL;DR: CL/P children had high risks of premature births and risk of mortality, and the most common cause of deaths was cardiovascular anomalies in syndromic CL/P.
