Background: Millard's rotation-advancement repair, which is used by many surgeons, can make a natural philtral column, but most surgeons use a modification of the rotation-advancement flap. The purpose of this article is to introduce a modification utilized by the authors and to provide detailed surgical procedure. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 82 patients' medical records and presented surgical technique and outcomes. The main features of the authors' strategy are emphasizing horizontal length of the lip, orbicularis oris muscle duplication for improving the definition of the philtral column, overcorrection of domal portion than the non-cleft side in order to compensate for the recurrence during growth. Two judges rated two times the appearance of the patients' nose and lip using Asher-McDade aesthetic index. Intra- and interobserver reliabilities were determined using Cohen's kappa statistics. Results: All patients recovered eventually after surgery; however, two patients have a minor complications (wound infection in one patient, wound disruption due to trauma in the other patient). The improvement of the aesthetic results can be achieved with this modified Millard technique. Total mean scores of the Asher-McDade index was 2.08, fair to good appearance. The intraobserver reliabilities were substantial to almost perfect agreement and the interobserver reliabilities were moderate to almost perfect agreement. Conclusion: We modified Millard method for repair of complete unilateral cleft lip. The surgical outcomes were favorable in long-term follow-up. We hope our technique will serve as a guide for those new to the procedure.

모든 환자들은 구순접합술을 시행 받았고 구순 및 구개열 유아들은 악정형장치인 Latham을 사용하였다. 수술의 기술적 변화들은 앞서 설명하였다. Columella 부위의 높은 rotation과 releasing incision은 내측 입술 부위를 충분히 길게 해주고, advancement flap이 phitral column 상방으로 최소로 침범되게 하여 균형적인 입술을 만들 수 있다. 또한 구륜근을 외번시켜 philtral ridge를 형성하고, 작은 unilimb Z-plasty을 구순측 Cupid's bow handle 높이에 맞게 시행 후, vermilion-cutaneous junction에서부터 상방으로 cutaneous closure 시행한다. 변위된 alar cartilage는 nostril rim incision을 통해 동측 upper lateral cartilage에 매달며, Alar base는 anterior-caudal septum의 위치, sill의 설정 그리고 외측 vestibular web 제거를 포함하여 3차원적으로 설계하여 치료해야 한다. 이번에 소개한 Mulliken의 치료법이 환자들과 외과의사들에게 많은 도움이 되기를 바란다.

The treatment of cleft lip and palate must be based on a complete knowledge of the anatomy, physiology and growth of the involved deformity, because of not only the appearance but also impaired functions such as phonation, mastication, respiration and lingual posture of the maxillomandibular complex. Delaire has long studied all these aspects, and has published many numbers of articles and constructed a philosophy concerning the significance and interrelationship of the various structures. The results obtained from its application seem to be particularly valid from a clinical point of view, although it has not all been scientifically supported by experimental data. For these reasons, Delaire's primary unilateral and bilateral cheilorhinoplasty procedures are particulary good, as is his secondary gingivoalveoloplsty procedure during the course of the surgical repair of the hard palate. In order to understand Delaire's philosophy, it is necessary to consider the normal and pathologic anatomy of the structures involved in the deformity, the role of some structures, such as nasal septum, musculature, and tongue, and some functions, such as dental occlusion or nasal respiration, which play important roles in maxillary and particularly premaxillary growth. Despite of important concept and meanings, Delaire's philosophy has not been introduced widely to our Korean cleft surgeons yet. So authors will summarize the basic concepts of Delaire's philosophy according to already published literatures and lectures based on our previous treatment outcomes.

편측성 혹은 양측성 구순구개열환자에서 일차 구순 성형술후 나타나는 이차 구순 기형은 세심한 관찰을 통한 문제점에 대한 정확한 인식을 통해 상순, 홍순부, 피부와 근육등의 적절한 교정술로 심미성, 기능적 회복을 이룰 수 있다. 저자들은 이차 구순 기형으로 나타난 구륜근의 부정유합, 휘파람 변형과 부족한 입술등에 대해 적절한 성형술로 심미적, 기능적으로 양호한 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다.

구순구개열은 선천성 악안면 기형 중 발생률이 가장 높은 질환으로 관련된 여러 분야의 협진(team approach)을 통한 조직적인 관리를 필요로 한다. 치료에 있어 수술분야의 많은 발전이 있어 왔으나 수술만으로는 다양한 문제점을 해결하기 어려웠다. 이에 따라 술 전 처치의 필요성을 인식하여 술전 비치조 정형의 개념이 개발되었으며 편측성 및 양측성 구순구개열 환자에게 적용되고 있다. 편측성 구순구개열에서 술전 비치조정형의 목적을 코의 대칭성을 회복시키는데에 중점을 두었다면 양측성 구순구개열에서는 짧은 비소주를 신장시키고, 낮아진 코끝을 세우고, 전방으로 변위된 전상악부를 재위치 시키는 것이 목적이라 할 수 있다. 본 증례에서는 양측성 구순/구개열로 진단받은 이란성 쌍둥이에게 술전 탄성밴드와 비치조정형 장치를 이용하여 첫 번째 입술수술 전까지인 약 70일간 전상악부의 후방 견인 및 술전 비치조정형을 시행하였다. 두 환아 모두 초기에 비해 비소주가 길어지고 전방 변위된 전상악부가 제 위치로 많이 회복된 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 그리고 입술 수술 후 술자와 보호자가 모두 만족할만한 심미적인 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 장치의 효과를 극대화하기 위해서 환자의 적응력, 보호자의 협조도 및 술자의 적절한 장치물의 선택과 세심한 조정, 이 3가지 요소가 조화를 이루어야 할 것이다.

Purpose: Anthropometry can be divided into two methods, direct anthropometry and indirect anthropometry. The most ideal and accurate method is a direct anthropometry. However, it is difficult to measure in the case of children because of poor cooperation, and it lacks re-productivity. Cast model has advantages of three dimensional featuring, inexpensive and easy fabrication. This study is conducted to find out an accuracy of indirect anthropometry on cast model by comparing it with direct anthropometry. Methods: Total 48 cleft lip nasal deformity patients (unilateral, 40; bilateral, 8) were included in this study. Cast models were made before surgery under general anesthesia with alginate impression material and model plaster. Eleven linear measurements among 7 landmarks were taken as direct anthropometry before surgery with Castroviejo spreading caliper. At the same time, indirect anthropometry on cast model was done at the same linear distances as well. Results: Of the total 11 linear measurements, both ala lengths, both columella lengths, nose width, projective distance between facial insertion points of the ala, projective distance between the alar base points, right nostril floor width, and columella width were statistically correlated between indirect anthropometry on cast model and direct anthropometry. However, the nasal tip protrusion and the left nostril floor width were not statistically correlated. Conclusion: Accuracy of indirect anthropometry on cast model can be influenced by cast model fabrication techniques and correct identification of landmarks. Nasal tip protrusion could be reduced by compression of the nasal tip in the process of cast model fabrication and nostril floor width can be varied by muscle relaxation of anesthetics and incorrect identification of subalare in cleft lip nasal deformity. If sufficient care is taken to make cast model and to define landmarks exactly, indirect anthropometry on cast model can be a reliable method as direct anthropometry.
