Abstract

Abstract: For patients with cleft lip and palate, a development-oriented multidisciplinary team approach is regarded as the most effective treatment at the present stage. It is of great significance to correctly evaluate the development stage for selecting the timing of treatment and prognoses. Skeletal age is widely applied as an effective biologic indicator for development stage. The development pattern of children with cleft lip and palate may different from that of non-cleft children. Through skeletal age, the development pattern of children with cleft lip and palate can be revealed, which is of great significance for sequential treatment protocol design. This paper will present the general skeletal age assessment methods of cleft lip and palate, and review the research progress on the skeletal age of patients with cleft lip and palate.

Key words: cleft lip and palate, skeletal maturity level, hand-wrist maturation, cervical vertebral maturation, development
