Millard Ⅱ式手术矫正单侧唇裂术后继发畸形的分析

目的 分析Millard Ⅱ式手术矫正单侧唇裂术后继发唇鼻畸形的优点与手术要点.方法 2003年3月至2004年9月,对42例单侧唇裂术后继发畸形患者采用Millard Ⅱ式手术矫正,同时松解患侧鼻翼软骨与皮肤的粘连,应用埋没导引针悬吊鼻翼软骨,或切断其内侧脚后上提与对侧鼻翼软骨内侧脚缝合.结果 所有患者术后切口愈合良好.随访3～6个月,患侧鼻小柱延长,两侧鼻孔对称,人中嵴对称,唇弓形态好,无瘢痕增生.结论 Millard Ⅱ式手术是矫正单侧唇裂术后继发畸形的理想术式,同时松解、悬吊患侧鼻翼软骨能够更好地矫正鼻畸形.

Analysis of Millard Ⅱ technique for correcting secondary deformities of unilateral cleft lip

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the Millard II technique for correcting secondary deformities of unilateral cleft lip. METHODS: The Millard II technique was used to correct secondary deformities of unilateral cleft lip in 42 patients from March of 2003 to September of 2004. Dissection was made between the alar cartilage and skin, and the alar cartilage was suspended. RESULTS: The postoperative follow-ups with 3 approximately 6 months revealed good results of the symmetrical nostrils and philtrums, prolonged columella nasi, good-shaped cupid's bow, and invisible scar. CONCLUSIONS: The Millard II technique could be an ideal method to correct secondary deformities of unilateral cleft lip. Releasing and suspending alar cartilage spontaneously at the same time can correct nasal deformity adequately.
