Abstract
Tessier No. 3 is one of three types of oblique facial clefts
according to #Tessier's classification. This serious and rare congenital
anomaly requires many specialized reconstructive operations and
long-term postoperative treatment, the necessity for which is emphasised
in this article. Based on a review of the literature, the paper
discusses techniques of #ortho-surgical treatment of Tessier type 3
facial cleft.raniofacial clefts constitute a broad spectrum of malformations which
have a large variety offorms. They occur at a frequency of1 to 5 per
100,000 live births [1]. One such extremely rare developmental defect is
an oblique face cleft, which represents 0.24% of all #craniofacial clefts [2]. Currently, the most widely used classification of cleft
defects in the facial part of the skull is that proposed by Tessier in
1976 [3]. Oblique facial clefts are described as Tessier types 3, 4 and
5; the naso-ocular cleft Tessier 3, is located the most #mesialy. It
involves such a #craniofacial structure as the #vermilion border of the
upper lip and the nasal wing. It results in the lack of an oral
vestibule in this area. Then, the cleft fissure passes through the side
wall of the nose up to the medial angle of the eye, medially in relation
to the lower lacrimal point.
