The lip\/alveolar clefts were repaired using a surgical technique adapted from human medicine including: (1) alveolar cleft and labial vestibulum repair, (2) cheilorhinoplasty and (3) palatal cleft repair when indicated. Intra\u2010 and postoperative complications, as well as clinical, functional and cosmetic outcomes, were recorded at 7 and 14\u2009days and at a minimum of 3\u2009months postoperatively. Cosmetic outcomes were evaluated using postoperative CT measurements.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 10 puppies (4 males, 6 females) were included. Of these, six presented with unilateral lip\/alveolar clefts (2 right\u2010sided and 4 left\u2010sided) and four presented with bilateral clefts. A total of 14 lip\/alveolar clefts were repaired. Four dogs had a complete secondary palate cleft. No intraoperative surgical complications were reported. Three cases of minor dehiscence of the cheilorhinoplasty suture line were observed, all healed by second intention within 14\u2009days postoperatively. One case of oronasal communication on the hard palate was successfully treated with minor revision surgery. Successful clinical and functional outcomes were reported for all dogs at the 3\u2010month postoperative evaluation. Overall cosmetic outcomes were rated as good to excellent.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n
