Abstract

The Santo Tomas University in Bucaramanga, counts with a clinic destined to the attention of patients with cleft lip/palate. An integral service is offered to take care of these patients from the Colombian noreast. Therefore, also a group has been created that investigates some aspects related to this malformation to understand a little more about its causality, handling and sequels, and thus to offer an opportune treatment to the patients and their families. The present work presents the management guidelines used in these patients and the research developed in the University in this area.
