Maxillary hypoplasia is a familiar deformity in patients with cleft lip and palate. A large amount of maxilla advancement is often needed to correct the severe deformity, but local soft-tissue scars around the maxilla restrict maxilla advancement and increase the relapse rate. By gradually lengthening both the bones and the soft tissues, midface distraction can greatly increase postoperative stability and lower the relapse rate.
