In this thesis, we present data that confirms that attempted distraction of the palatomaxillary suture (PMS) achieves cleft closure preferentially by alveolar arch collapse, and not by intended SDO. To that end, we have designed a novel custom-fit intraoral splint that successfully prevents maxillary collapse while facilitating cleft defect approximation via sutural distraction. Preservation of maxillary dimensions was confirmed via intraoral measurements and craniometrics. New bone deposition secondary to SDO was quantified with histomorphometry and microCT, while the effects of distraction on the PMS and palatal bone were assessed with histology and Dual­ energy Xray Absorptiometry (DXA). In summary, approximation ofpalatal defects via SDO in a canine model without maxillary collapse is possible, and may be a promising therapeutic approach for the repair of cleft palates in human infants. 1 RESUME L'ostéogenèse d'élongation de la suture a été proposée comme une approche originale de fermeture de la fente palatine afin de pallier aux insuffisances de la réparation chirurgicale traditionnelle. Dans cette thèse, nous présentons les données qui confirment qu'au moyen d'une élongation tentée de la suture maxillo-palatine, on réalise avec succès la fermeture de la fente aux dépens de l'effondrement maxillaire statistiquement important dans un modèle de palais fendu canin. Dans ce but, nous avons conçu une nouvelle attelle intra-buccale, réalisée sur mesure, qui évite avec succès l'effrondrement maxillaire tout en facilitant le rapprochement de la fente par l'élongation de la suture. L'effondrement maxillaire a été mesuré in vivo en intra-buccal et par craniométrie post mortem. L'ostéogenèse d'élongation de la suture a été corroboré par l'histomorpho-métrie et microCT. En résumé, la réparation des fentes palatines au moyen d'une élongation de la suture a des implications cliniques passionnantes pouvant être réalisée à la suite de la prévention de l'effondrement maxillaire, l'attelle intra-buccale décrite en complément.

The fetal palatomaxillary suture is so long that it extends along the anteroposterior axis rather than along the transverse axis. The double layered bony palate disappears in childhood and the transverse suture is formed. To better understand the development of the double layered bone palate, we examined histological sections obtained from 25 fetuses of gestational age 9–11, 16–18 and 30 weeks. The double layered palate was seen in all of the specimens exam- ined.

In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: “It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge.” This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, com- mencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions in History and Technology Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Museum Conservation Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report on the research and collections of its various museums and bureaus. The Smithsonian Contributions Series are distributed via mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institu- tions throughout the world. Manuscripts submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Scholarly Press from authors with direct affilia- tion with the various Smithsonian museums or bureaus and are subject to peer review and review for compliance with manuscript preparation guidelines.
