Harelip, facial cleft and cleft palate are frequent accidents of facial development. There is nothing special with their embryological mechanism, but their consequences concerning the future anatomy of the oral and nasal cavities are impressive. Owing to a better understanding of facial embryology and of the anatomical repercussions of the clefts, satisfactory morphological results can be obtained by surgical lip repair performed with an ever increasing precision.
唇裂、面裂和腭裂是面部发育中常见的异常情况。它们的胚胎学机制并无特殊之处，但其对口腔和鼻腔未来解剖结构的影响却令人瞩目。由于对面部胚胎学以及腭裂的解剖学影响有了更深入的了解，通过越来越精确的手术唇裂修复能够获得令人满意的形态学效果。
