An 11-year follow-up of the effects of early bone grafting in infants born with complete clefts of the lip and palate.

This is a report at the age of 11 years of a clinical study of the effects of early bone grafting in infants born with complete clefts of the lip and palate. Matched pairs of similar cleft type were treated according to the same treatment protocol with the exception that only one of each pair received an autogenous rib bone graft at the age of 15 months. The overall impression left by this study is that early bone grafting is not beneficial to the patient.

An examination of the birthweights of babies with some abnormalities of the alimentary tract.

The birthweights of patients with congenital anomalies of the intestinal tract have been examined. Cases of esophageal and duodenal atresia, malrotation of the midgut and anal anomalies have been chosen only if they were uncomplicated by any other major anomaly, and their weights plotted on the centile charts when the gestational age was known. The birthweights of cases of esophageal and duodenal atresia are clearly less than in cases of malrotation and anal malformation. This difference may be related to the function of the intestinal canal. Despite low birthweights in cases of esophageal atresia, the head circumference (OFC) shows a normal distribution.
