There have been many reports on congenital anomalies associated with cleft lip and/or palate (CL/CLP) in Japan. However, these reports included data only on patients who came to hospitals; thus the real situation regarding these anomalies remains unclear. Therefore, we surveyed newborns at all delivery facilities in the central area of Japan for the presence of these anomalies, following their progress for 12 consecutive years; at the end of that time, questionnaires were collected and analyzed. In this article, we describe our results.
在日本,有许多关于唇裂和/或腭裂(CL/CLP)相关先天性异常的报告。然而,这些报告仅包含到医院就诊患者的数据;因此,这些异常的实际情况仍不清楚。因此,我们对日本中部地区所有分娩机构的新生儿进行了调查,以确定这些异常的存在情况,并连续跟踪了12年;在跟踪期结束时,收集并分析了调查问卷。在本文中,我们描述了我们的结果。
