Abstract

Introduction: the orofacial clefts are the most frequent congenital malformations of the head and neck in the world, with great epidemiological importance for their impact on the quality of life of the population. This impact is largely due to the presence of postsurgical complications, which is why it is important to know them, in order to apply prevention strategies or early correction. Objective: to identify  the main complications following surgical treatment of cleft lip, cleft palate or both, in a third level hospital in Bucaramanga, Santander, Colombia. Materials and methods: descriptive cross-sectional study. The information was obtained from the medical records of patients whose surgical intervention was performed during the period from january 2013 to december 2016. Results: records of 55 patients were obtained. The joint presentation of cleft lip and palate was the most frequent craniofacial anomaly (70.9%). The most frequent complication was oronasal fistula (23.9% of patients with compromised palate), followed by dehiscence of the surgical wound (3.6%). A higher percentage of postoperative complications was found in the male sex. Conclusion: the postoperative complication of lip and/or cleft palate correction most frequently found in the sample was the oronasal fistula. MÉD.UIS. 2018;31(2):25-32.
