Cleft Surgery Programme
Overview
Cleft conditions are birth defects that occur when the tissue in the upper lip or roof of the mouth (palate) doesn't fuse properly during foetal development. This can cause difficulty eating, speaking, and can sometimes affect facial aesthetics.
The Aga Khan University Hospital's Cleft Surgery Programme is a comprehensive care initiative dedicated to treating children born with cleft lip and palate. Our programme offers a full spectrum of care, from diagnosis and treatment planning to surgery and rehabilitation, ensuring each child receives the best possible outcome.
