Abstract
Craniofacial cleft classification has been well elucidated by Drs. Tessier and Kawamoto. Although classification of various clefts has been well documented, the surgical approach and final outcome of some of these clefts are sparse. Basic craniofacial principles are utilized with individualization depending on the type of cleft encountered.
