[Cranial structure in unilateral complete cleft lip and palate in children 8-12 years of age].

: The tele-X-ray photographs of 108 patients with single-sided cleft lips and palate were compared with 71 normal controls. The examination proved that a basic crane structure difference can be found between the groups. The group with cleft has a characteristic face with significant skeletal and dental changes. Such features have to be considered in the course of habilitation.
