https://www.selleckchem.com/products/blu-554.html Oronasal fistula (ONF) is a common complication following cleft palate surgery. This study aims to determine the prevalence of ONF and the factors that influence development of ONF following primary palatoplasty. There were 234 patients undergoing primary palatoplasty during 2012 to 2016 included in this cross-sectional study. Patient demographics, surgeon's experience, age at the time of primary palatoplasty, cleft type by Veau classification, cleft width, and operative technique were recorded. The prevalence of fistulae was the primary outcome. Association of age at the time of repair, cleft type, cleft associated with syndromes, cleft width, and surgeon's experience with fistula rate were secondary outcomes. There were 234 consecutive patients (128 boys [54.7%] and 106 girls [45.3%]). The mean age at primary palatoplasty was 13 months. Oronasal fistulae occurred in 61 (26.07%) patients. There was a statistically significant association between postoperative oronasal fistulae and the following independent variables Veau classification (adjusted odds ratio 2.1; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.45-3.1, P < 0.01), cleft associated with syndromes (adjusted odds ratio 4.76; 95% CI = 1.48-15.2, P < 0.01) and cleft width more than 11.5 mm (adjusted odds ratio 1.96; 95% CI = 1.00-3.85, P = 0.04). The overall number of fistulae was moderate in patients who had undergone primary palatoplasty in our center. Cleft severity as defined by the Veau classification, cleft width, and cleft associated with syndromes were predictive factors for development of postoperative fistulae.
