El Ezzi1 Received: 25 October 2018 / Accepted: 10 January 2019 / Published online: 17 January 2019 © Springer-Verlag France SAS, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract The oro-ocular cleft number 5 according to the Tessier classification is one of the rarest facial clefts and few cases have been reported in the literature. Although the detailed structure of rare craniofacial clefts is well established, the cause of these pathological conditions is not. There are no existing guidelines for the management of this particular kind of cleft. We describe the case of a 19-month-old girl with a complete bilateral facial cleft. We describe the surgical steps taken to achieve the primary correction of the soft tissue deformation. Embryologic development and radiological approach are discussed, as are also the psychological and social aspects of severe facial deformities.

Reddy1, Joachim Obwegeser2, Maurice Y. Mommaerts3 1GSR Institute of Craniofacial Surgery, Hyderabad, Telangana, India, 2Children Hospital Zurich, University Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland, 3Bruges Cleft and Craniofacial Centre, GH St. Jan, Bruges, Belgium Address for correspondence: Dr. Srinivas Gosla Reddy, GSR Institute of Craniofacial Surgery, 17-1-383/55, Vinaynagar Colony, I.S. Sadan, Saidabad, Hyderabad - 500 059, Andhra Pradesh, India. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Background: Non-syndromic Tessier no. 2 and 3 facial clefts primarily affect the nasal complex. The anatomy of such clefts is such that the ala of the nose has a cleft. Repairing the ala presents some challenges to the surgeon, especially to correct the shape and missing tissue. Various techniques have been considered to repair these cleft defects. Aim: We present two surgical options to repair such facial clefts. Materials and Methods: A nasal dorsum rotational flap was used to treat patients with Tessier no. 2 clefts. This is a local flap that uses tissue from the dorsal surface of the nose. The advantage of this flap design is that it helps move the displaced ala of a Tessier no. 2 cleft into its normal position. A forehead-eyelid-nasal transposition flap design was used to treat patients with Tessier no. 3 clefts. This flap design includes three prongs that are rotated downward. A forehead flap is rotated into the area above the eyelid, the flap from above the eyelid is rotated to infra-orbital area and the flap from the infraorbital area that includes the free nasal ala of the cleft is rotated into place.

Carstens Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Department of Surgery at Saint Louis University School of Medicine, Saint Louis, MO Address for correspondence: Dr. Michael Carstens, Division of Plastic Surgery, Department of Surgery, St. Louis University Health Sciences Centre, 3635, Vista Avenue at Grand Boulevard, P.O. Box 15250, Saint Louis, MO 63110-0250. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The master plan of all vertebrate embryos is based on neuroanatomy. The embryo can be anatomically divided into discrete units called neuromeres so that each carries unique genetic traits. Embryonic neural crest cells arising from each neuromere induce development of nerves and concomitant arteries and support the development of speciÞ c craniofacial tissues or developmental Þ elds. Fields are assembled upon each other in a programmed spatiotemporal order. Abnormalities in one Þ eld can affect the shape and position of developing adjacent Þ elds. Craniofacial clefts represent states of excess or deÞ ciency within and between speciÞ c developmental Þ elds. The neuromeric organization of the embryo is the common denominator for understanding normal anatomy and pathology of the head and neck. Tessier’s observational cleft classiÞ cation system can be redeÞ ned using neuroanatomic embryology. Reassessment of Tessier’s empiric observations demonstrates a more rational rearrangement of cleft zones, particularly near the midline. Neuromeric theory is also a means to understand and deÞ ne other common craniofacial problems.
