Other Complications

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

A complication is considered as an unexpected event that occurs in the course of a surgical act different from the usual manifestations of this and that are a consequence of the effects caused by it. A number of perioperative events cannot be totally prevented by the surgeon, and only an adequate follow-up of the operated patients may guarantee their diagnostic and proper management. Related complications observed in association with cleft lip and palate surgery are temperature disorders, hypoglycemia, seizures, hearing disorders, trauma, psychosocial disorders, death, and others. This chapter presents related complications associated with cleft lip and palate surgery and their diagnostic and interdisciplinary management. Early diagnostic and intervention are key points for successful handling of these problems.
