Abstract
It is now almost 10 years since we first began to perform the simultaneous repair of cleft lip and palate during early infancy (Kaplanet al., 1974). The initial results were so encouraging that we rapidly adopted this as the routine procedure for infants born with this deformity. Our experience and the results which we have achieved with this approach, form the basis of this progress report.
