Abstract EN
Context : Cleft palate is the second most common birth defect and is considered as a challenge for pediatric plastic surgeons.
There is still a general lack of a standard protocol and patients often require multiple surgical interventions during their lifetime along with disappointing results. Evidence Acquisition : PubMed search was undertaken using search terms including 'cleft palate repair', 'palatal cleft closure', 'cleft palate + stem cells', 'cleft palate + plasma rich platelet', 'cleft palate + scaffold', 'palatal tissue engineering', and 'bone tissue engineering'.
The found articles were included if they defined a therapeutic strategy and/or assessed a new technique. Results : We reported a summary of the key-points concerning cleft palate development, the genes involving this defect, current therapeutic strategies, recently novel aspects, and future advances in treatments for easy and fast understanding of the concepts, rather than a systematic review.
In addition, the results were integrated with our recent experience. Conclusions : Tissue engineering may open a new window in cleft palate reconstruction.
Stem cells and growth factors play key roles in this field.
