Cleft Palate-Lateral Synechiae Syndrome: A Case Report
Autor*innen
Funding None.
Abstract
Lateral synechiae (LS) are fibrous bands extending from the cleft edges to the lateral edges of the tongue. The etiology of LS is still not clear, and although they are rare, they usually coexist with cleft lip palate and other congenital anomalies. In this study, we report a case of cleft palate-lateral synechiae syndrome. In this case, the lateral synechia bands were cauterized and the patient was able to open the jaw fully. Although LS is rare, medical practitioners should have awareness regarding it so that appropriate treatment protocol can be formulated for the patients.
