PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: Patients with cleft lip and/or palate are commonly encountered in both general ENT practices as well as subspecialty clinics. As such, a familiarity with the etiology, common problems and recommended management should be a component of every ENT's practice.

  1. Become aware of the etiology and different manifestations of cleft lip and palate.
  2. Understand the common ENT challenges found in patients with cleft lip and/or palate. Become familiar with cleft diagnosis and management.
