The AA. discuss the problem of morphology of cranial base in children with cleft lip and palate, using a cephalometric appraisal. They record the data from 28 patients with cleft and from 30 normal children; the linear dimensions from nasion to sella and sella to basion are significantly reduced in the cleft lip and palate group, while cranial base angulation doesn't differ between the cleft sample and the control group.
