A cleft lip or palate can be successfully treated with surgery. This is often done in the first few months of life for cleft lip.
In Pakistan, 9000 children are born with cleft lips or palates every year and 132 million babies were born with cleft lip/palate or both in the world annually.
According to a rough estimate, there are around 1.2 million untreated cleft patients in the world, of which around 300,000 are in Pakistan. In Sindh, their number is estimated around 50,000 to 60,000,” he said. “Dr Mohammad Ashraf Ganatra”.
Children are often shunned or isolated by their communities if they are born with a cleft because they are seen as ‘different'.
