This work aimed to access the profile of cleft lip and palate patients of a sub-population in Mid-West Brazil.
MATERIALS & METHODS: Research was carried out through a cross-sectional study at the Craniofacial Rehabilitation Center of the University General Hospital of the University of Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, Brazil. Variables related to oral cleft type, gender, race, age and presence or absence of associated congenital anomalies or syndromes were analyzed.
313 patients treated at the institution from 2004 to 2007 were recruited. There were 54% male and 46% female patients with the mean age of 11.4 years. Cleft lip and palate was the most prevalent alteration in 49.6% of cases. Caucasians were the most affected in 54.6% of cases. 6.4% of patients had other anomalies or syndromes associated with cleft.
More comprehensive surveys should be conducted in order to supply the lack of data on the occurrence and determinants of oral clefts in this region.

本研究旨在了解巴西中西部一个亚人群中唇腭裂患者的概况。
本研究通过在巴西马托格罗索州库亚巴大学综合医院颅面康复中心进行横断面研究。分析了与口腔裂隙类型、性别、种族、年龄以及是否存在相关先天性异常或综合征有关的变量。
招募了2004年至2007年在该机构接受治疗的313名患者。男性患者占54%,女性患者占46%,平均年龄为11.4岁。唇腭裂是最常见的畸形,占49.6%的病例。白种人受影响最大,占54.6%的病例。6.4%的患者有与腭裂相关的其他异常或综合征。
应进行更全面的调查,以补充该地区口腔裂隙发生情况和决定因素的数据不足。如何引用本文:Cuozzo FD,Espinosa MM,Serafim da Silva KT,Martins de Barros YB,Bandeca MC,Aranha AM,Borges AH,Volpato LE。巴西一个亚人群中的唇腭裂。《国际口腔健康杂志》2013;5(4):15 - 20。
