“…Furthermore, our study demonstrates that repairs by both the TR and Millard techniques were effective. Our findings are consistent with those of Bilwatsch et al 27 and Hakim et al 18 , who independently evaluated Millard's and Tennison-Randall techniques, respectively. Hakim et al 18 performed postoperative digital anthropometry on 18 patients who received UCL repairs with rotation-advancement and they compared these to normal controls.…”

“…This might suggest that the non-cleft side is a poor control for the repaired cleft side, possibly due to a compensatory hypertrophy on the non-cleft side. Symmetry of the cleft side with the control but not with the non-cleft side has been reported in other studies 18 28 . Consequently, it is now being speculated that the non-cleft side may not be an appropriate control for the cleft side 28 .…”

“…Although a completely symmetrical facial surface does not occur in nature and is not achievable by surgery, it is also obvious that perceivable deviations from symmetry are no desirable result of surgery. This has, e.g., been shown with respect to the perception of facial asymmetry in rhinoplasty patients [8] and is widely accepted in the context of surgical procedures concerning the correction of a cleft lip and palate [12,22,23,25]. Thus, maintaining or restoring a symmetric appearance is also a primary goal when, e.g., designing craniofacial prostheses [21].…”

“…There are multiple computer methodics for face asymmetries assessment [50,51]. Computer methods demonstrate expressed valuable differences between men and women [52,53]. Face asymmetry was assessed in right-and left-handed men and women by means of posteroanterior radiographic cephalometry method [54]: areas on the left were significantly larger than those on the right in right-handers; lefthanders were inconsistent in asymmetry though they had tendency to have larger facial areas on the right than on the left.…”
