Abstract

Presurgical infant orthopaedic (PSIO) protocol is applied prior to cleft Lip and/ cleft palate surgical intervention to facilitate the repair by restoring the alar base and maintaining the skeletal, soft tissue harmony. The objective of this review is to assess the literature on the presurgical infant orthopaedic protocol most widely used and accepted. Searches were made in PubMed, Cochrane and Google Scholar on cleft lip and/palate. A large number of articles documented approaching PSIO for cleft treatment with the intent to provide a satisfactory treatment for cleft patients, requiring far more than just correctional surgery and its ability to do so is unique. Craniofacial Orthodontists can choose from a wide array of treatment options for their patients and can learn from the outcomes attained by applying a combination of outcomes at various other centers.
