Abstract

The labio-maxillofacial cleft (LMFC) penalizes the child from birth by its aesthetic, functional, psychological and social repercussions. The prognosis is conditioned by a multidisciplinary care that starts from the antenatal period to continue until the end of growth. The treatment is long and complex. This explains the multiplicity of techniques and the variability of schedules according to the teams. The purpose of this article is to describe the protocol of management of the LMFC within the multi-disciplinary team in Lausanne and to emphasize the novelties in both surgical and organizational plan.
