Abstract
This study reviews the craniofacial clefts that presented at a Nigerian tertiary health facility, highlighting our experience with the pattern of presentation and surgical care of these patients. A retrospective review of the smile train database and medical records of all individuals who had been diagnosed with any of the Tessier craniofacial clefts and managed between 1st January 2007 and 31st December 2020 was done. The data were presented as numbers and percentages of cases. The cleft clinic of a tertiary health facility and a major cleft referral center in South-West Nigeria. Forty-five patients with craniofacial clefts were managed over the study period. 15.6% had associated syndromes, 2.2% had a family history of similar craniofacial cleft and 11% had a history of a possible teratogen. There were 21 (46.7%) middle clefts, 14(31.1%) lateral clefts and 10(22.2%) oblique clefts. The most common type of cleft was Tessier 0 while the Tessier 6 was the least common type. The median age at surgery was 10 months for male and 5months for female subjects, 15.3% complication rate was found in this study. Four patients had revision surgeries to correct residual deformities in this study. The diverse presentations and occurrence of the rare craniofacial clefts present complex aesthetic and functional problems that require individualized often multidisciplinary care. The execution of a properly planned treatment will reduce complications and the need for revision surgeries.

Pak1ip1 Loss-of-Function Leads to Cell Cycle Arrest, Loss of Neural Crest Cells, and Craniofacial Abnormalities. Front Cell Dev Biol 2020; 8:510063. [PMID: 32984348 PMCID: PMC7490522 DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2020.510063] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2019] [Accepted: 08/13/2020] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Neural crest cells (NCCs) comprise a transient progenitor cell population of neuroepithelial origin that contributes to a variety of cell types throughout vertebrate embryos including most mesenchymal cells of the cranial and facial structures. Consequently, abnormal NCC development underlies a variety of craniofacial defects including orofacial clefts, which constitute some of the most common birth defects. We previously reported the generation of manta ray (mray) mice that carry a loss-of-function allele of the gene encoding the preribosomal factor Pak1ip1. Here we describe cranioskeletal abnormalities in homozygous mray mutants that arise from a loss of NCCs after their specification. Our results show that the localized loss of cranial NCCs in the developing frontonasal prominences is caused by cell cycle arrest and cell death. In addition, and consistent with deficits in ribosome biosynthesis, homozygous mray mutants display decreased protein biosynthesis, further linking Pak1ip1 to a role in ribosome biogenesis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The author presents 4 cases and attempts to analyze the prevalence of true median cleft lip (MCL) in one center. Embryology, associated anomalies, and surgical treatment are discussed. DESIGN A retrospective descriptive study. SETTING Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia. PARTICIPANTS All patients with congenital facial cleft deformities from 2005 to 2019 were retrieved from the Plastic Surgery OR Registry. All characteristics in interest were individually tabulated and evaluated. Four cases were reviewed and discussed. OUTCOME Prevalence of true MCL. RESULTS Out of the 494 patients included in the study, only 4 (0.81%) were affected with a median cleft, and the prevalence of true median cleft was hence determined to be 3 (0.61%) among the cleft population. CONCLUSION The prevalence of the true MCL is rare which makes it hard to categorize these clefts, and the surgical protocol needs to be established for the definitive treatment.
