Journal CME Article: Update in Unilateral Cleft Lip Surgery V2

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video describes a detailed surgical procedure involving the reconstruction of nasal and lip structures. Local anesthetic is applied before making precise incisions on the greater and lesser lip segments to create M, C, and L flaps for reconstruction. The procedure aims to realign and mobilize these segments for structural clarity and functionality, with techniques like flap elevation, muscle dissection, and suturing to close incisions. Special attention is given to the intranasal area, using specific sutures to correct webbing and enhance tissue stability. Rhinoplasty elements are also addressed, focusing on cartilage alignment and aesthetic outcomes.
