Cleft of the lip and palate are distinct entities closely related embryologically, functionally and genetically. The incidence of associated congenital malformations and of impairment in development is increased in children with cleft defects, especially in those with cleft palate alone. In our study, 4 isolated cleft lip, 7 isolated cleft palate and 9 cleft lip with cleft palate cases who were internalized to SSK Göztepe Educational Hospital Pediatric Neonatology Unit were evaluated. No other anomalies were detected in the patients with cleft lip; whereas 7 (% 44) of the 16 cleft palate cases had associated congenital defects. % 19 of these patients had cerebral malformations, % 25 facial anomalies, % 19 heart defects and % 12 extremity problems.
Consequently, we point out that this group of children require attention for the other associated congenital problems and should be evaluated and followed with a multidiscipliner approach. Keywords: Cleft lip, Cleft palate

SSK Göztepe Eğitim Hastanesi Çocuk Kliniği Yenidoğan Servisinde takip edilen, 4 yarık dudak, 7 yarık damak ve 9 yarık damak-dudak anomalisi olan toplam 20 olgu değerlendirildi. Yarık dudaklı 4 olgunun hiçbirinde ilave patoloji saptanmazken, yarık damağı olan 16 olgunun 7 (% 44)’sinde çeşitli anomaliler saptandı. Bunlardan; % 19’unda serebral anomali, % 25’inde fasiyal anomali, % 19’unda kalp malformasyonları, % 12’sinde ekstremite anomalileri tespit edildi.
Konjenital malformasyonlar yarık damaklı bebeklerde daha fazla görüldüğünden, bu hastaların ayrıntılı incelenerek eşlik edebilecek ilave patolojilerin tespiti ve multidisipliner bir
şekilde takip edilmeleri gereklidir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Yarık dukak, yarık damak
