Evaluation of Postoperative Outcomes Following Early and Late Palate Repair: A Preclinical Study
Early surgical intervention in a mouse model mirrors the adverse growth outcomes in children undergoing early cleft repair. Molecular and cellular observations accompanying this midfacial growth arrest may inform therapeutic strategies to mitigate midfacial growth disturbances in patients and highlight the need for refined surgical techniques to minimize adverse growth outcomes.
