Does Sidedness Matter in Complete Unilateral Cleft Lip?

Complete Unilateral Cleft Lip (cUCL) displays directional laterality with left sided clefts occurring twice as commonly as right sided. Anecdotally there is a notion that one side may be more challenging to reconstruct than the other. The perceived impact of laterality, from a cleft surgeon’s perspective, has not been previously investigated.
