Abstract：
Oro-facial clefts are among the most commonly occurring congenital defects. Surgical interventions are commonly carried out to treat these deformities. Some inadequacies however, like scarring of the nasolabial complex and multiple interventions to achieve desired results still persist. Presurgical Nasoalveolar molding (PNAM) technique can be carried out before surgical repair, to facilitate a reduction in the severity of the cleft by actively molding and repositioning the clefted alveolar segments and the associated soft tissues. This case series describes the successful rehabilitation of two unilateral mid-facial cleft babies using the PNAM technique in a step wise manner with a two year follow up.
摘要：
口面部裂痕是最常见的先天性缺陷之一。通常进行手术干预以治疗这些畸形。然而，一些不足之处，像鼻唇沟复合体的疤痕和达到预期效果的多种干预措施仍然存在。术前鼻肺泡成型（PNAM）技术可以在手术修复前进行，通过积极地成型和重新定位裂开的肺泡段和相关的软组织，以减少裂隙的严重程度。该病例系列描述了使用PNAM技术以逐步的方式成功康复了两个单侧面部中间裂婴儿，并进行了两年的随访。
