Horizontal trimming of the white lip and pedicled flap for whistle deformity correction in a patient with a bilateral cleft lip: A case report

Horizontal trimming of the white lip and de-epithelialized pedicled flaps is a reliable, minimally invasive solution for addressing upper lip deformities in patients with BCLP. Further research and extended follow-up are required to validate long-term stability and patient satisfaction with this technique.
