The Continuing Multidisciplinary Needs of Adult Patients with Cleft Lip and/or Palate

Abstract

For some patients who have had a cleft lip and/or palate, problems continue into adulthood or arise later in life. These problems are often multiple and treatment often requires the input of more than one specialist. The results of this audit support the need for coordinated multidisciplinary care for adults who have had a cleft lip and/or palate.
