An oral synechia is an adhesion between the maxilla and the mandible; these adhesions can be found at various locations in the oral cavity. The presence of oral synechiae associated with cleft palate represents a rare congenital deformity. Oral synechiae with cleft palate can have serious implications for airway management and feeding in babies, and hence requires early intervention to reduce morbidity. Two cases of congenital oral synechiae accompanied by cleft palate, in which the synechiae veiled the oral cavity restricting a detailed intraoral examination, are reported here.
口腔粘连是上颌骨与下颌骨之间的粘连；这些粘连可在口腔的不同部位发现。与腭裂相关的口腔粘连是一种罕见的先天性畸形。伴有腭裂的口腔粘连对婴儿的气道管理和喂养可能有严重影响，因此需要早期干预以降低发病率。本文报告两例伴有腭裂的先天性口腔粘连病例，其中粘连遮盖口腔，限制了详细的口腔内检查。
