Abstract
Introduction: Since early days of medicine, there has always been a need for evidence based practices which enable the physician to determine the best treatment strategies and replicate the results again and again. The importance of evidence based medicine was stressed by Hippocrates who declared that the physician needs to “rely on actual evidence rather than on conclusion resulting solely from reasoning because arguments in the form of idle words are erroneous and can be easily refuted.”(1)  Aim of the work: The aims of our study are to evaluate and assess the advantages, disadvantages, and outcomes of Mishra technique in unilateral complete or incomplete cleft lip repair.
Patients and Methods: Our study is a prospective study which was conducted at Minia University Pediatric Hospital. We enrolled 50 patients with unilateral cleft lip operated upon with Mishra technique from September 2020 to September 2021. Results: A total of 50 pediatric patients with unilateral cleft lip were included in our study at Pediatric Surgery Unit of General Surgery Department of Minia University Hospital. Children’s age ranged from three to twelve months with a mean±SD of 6.8±3.1 months (Table 3). Conclusion: The goal of cleft lip operation is to attain a perfectly symmetrical lip and nose. The symmetry and appearance of the nasolabial region is also seen as one of the principal characteristics when evaluating the results of any facial surgery.
