Abstract
- Oblique facial cleft is a rare congenital deformity. Its incidence has been reported as 0.24% of all reported cases of facial cleft. We report on a patient who had a left-sided oblique facial cleft with anopthamia, including lip and palate, nose alar base, and medial canthus. The patient also had a right-sided oblique facial cleft, which included lip and palate, nose alar base, medial canthus, and upper eye brow. Primary closure of the facial cleft was performed using multiple Z-plasty after excision of scar tissue.
