In Peralta S, Fiani N, Kan-Rohrer KH, Verstraete FJM, “Morphological evaluation of clefts of the lip, palate, or both in dogs”,
What was the goal of the study?
To apply a more accurate and detailed characterization system for palatal defects in dogs.
In Peralta S, Fiani N, Kan-Rohrer KH, Verstraete FJM, “Morphological evaluation of clefts of the lip, palate, or both in dogs”,
What does LAHSHAL stand for in the classification system, what do upper and lower case letters mean?
Each letter represents an anatomic location
(L = lip, A = alveolus, H = hard palate, and S = soft palate).
In this diagrammatic classification system, letters to the left of the S represent defects on the right side of the soft palate at midline and vice versa.
Uppercase and lowercase letters represent complete or incomplete defects, respectively.
In Peralta S, Fiani N, Kan-Rohrer KH, Verstraete FJM, “Morphological evaluation of clefts of the lip, palate, or both in dogs”,
What was most common: Cleft lip (CL), cleft palate (CP) or both lip and palate (CLP)?
- Cleft palate 23/32
- Cleft lip (5/32)
- Cleft lip and palate (4/32)
In Peralta S, Fiani N, Kan-Rohrer KH, Verstraete FJM, “Morphological evaluation of clefts of the lip, palate, or both in dogs”,

80% of CL;
100 % of CLP
only 44% of CP - 56% mesaticephalic
In Peralta S, Fiani N, Kan-Rohrer KH, Verstraete FJM, “Morphological evaluation of clefts of the lip, palate, or both in dogs”,
Among CL and CLP defects, between which teeth did the alveolar defect usually reside?
what other 3 dental/maxillofacial defects were common?
Second and third incisors (100%)
Deviated permanent incisor teeth,
(persistent) deciduous incisor teeth,
Nonfused incisivomaxillary and vomeroincisive sutures
In Peralta S, Fiani N, Kan-Rohrer KH, Verstraete FJM, “Morphological evaluation of clefts of the lip, palate, or both in dogs”,
Which side was more commonly associated with cleft lip, and what is the proposed embryological reason?
- Left sided lip clefts more common, and this is also reported in humans
- Discrepancy in the laterality of lip and alveolus clefts is explained by differences in embryological events during palatogenesis - the left palatal shelf goes into a horizontal position later than the right, allowing a wider timeframe for abnormalities to occur
In Peralta S, Fiani N, Kan-Rohrer KH, Verstraete FJM, “Morphological evaluation of clefts of the lip, palate, or both in dogs”,
How many indvividual LAHSHAL classifications were found in this study?

In Fiani N, Verstraete FJM, Arzi B “Reconstruction of Congenital Nose, Cleft Primary Palate, and Lip Disorders”,
What is the most important factor in formation of primary clefts?
Genetics
(others are environmental teratogens, mystic emanations etc.)
In Fiani N, Verstraete FJM, Arzi B “Reconstruction of Congenital Nose, Cleft Primary Palate, and Lip Disorders”,
What are 3 reasons to delay surgery until 4-6 months of age?
1 - more growth = more tissue to harvest for closure
2 - surgery will interfere with maxillorfacial growth more if performed when younger
- permanent teeth if unerupted my erupt and be malpositioned or interfere with repair when they do erupt
In Fiani N, Verstraete FJM, Arzi B “Reconstruction of Congenital Nose, Cleft Primary Palate, and Lip Disorders”,
What is the first phase of a staged approach and what are 2 reasons to opt to perform a staged procedure?
Phase 1 is selective dental extractions
Phase 2 is definitive repair
Reasons
- Minimal soft tissue available and extraction will allow harvest of more tissue
- Teeth are erupting into the cleft and will interfere with repair
In Fiani N, Verstraete FJM, Arzi B “Reconstruction of Congenital Nose, Cleft Primary Palate, and Lip Disorders”,
What is the most common complication and what are the purported reasons?
Dehiscence
- tension at the surgical site
- poor surgical technique
- occlusal interference (lower canine)
In Fiani N, Verstraete FJM, Arzi B “Reconstruction of Congenital Nose, Cleft Primary Palate, and Lip Disorders”,
In which order should the repair proceed?
- Repair of lip, nasal planum, rostral portion of floor of nose
- Repair of palatal defect
- Repair of floor of nose, gingival margin, alveolar and labial mucosa
- Repair of palatal defect
- Repair of floor of nose, gingival margin, alveolar and labial mucosa
- Repair of lip, nasal planum, rostral portion of floor of nose
Note - work central to peripheral - separating nose from mouth is the goal, and a cosmetic notch in the lip is acceptable.
