Neonatal cleft lip repair: the anesthesiologist's point of view

Abstract

Neonatal cleft lip repair is no longer an unusual procedure and several series have been published to date. We present our 3-year experience from the anesthesiologist's point of view. Preoperative evaluation, perioperative management, and postoperative problems are described. A thorough preoperative evaluation in order to exclude associated malformations (especially cardiac) and experience in neonatal anesthesia are essential for the sake of safety.
