The patient\u2019s ages ranged from 5 months to 3 years.

A small residual opening was noted at the level of the incisive papilla in each dog; this was of no clinical consequence in this report.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>CLINICAL RELEVANCE<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>The von Langenbeck technique, using the simple closure modifications reported, was effective in closing both narrow and wide defects. Successful execution requires the complete elevation of each flap, which facilitates their tension-free advancement over the palatal cleft. Vertical mattress sutures evert the flap margins, allowing for direct collagen surface contact for proper healing. Placement of sutures in the rugal folds increases the tissue purchase to reduce the risk of suture cut-out. Fine interrupted sutures, placed between the vertical mattress sutures, maintains the proper alignment of the incisional margins. The author waits a minimum of 5 months before closing cleft palate defects, enabling the donor areas time to mature and improving their ability to retain sutures more effectively.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.22.09.0421","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,2]],"date-time":"2023-02-02T19:00:08Z","timestamp":1675364408000},"page":"526-535","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Surgical closure of cleft palate defects in dogs using a modification of the traditional von Langenbeck technique: 12 cases (2015\u20132022)"],"prefix":"10.2460","volume":"261","author":[{"given":"Michael M.","family":"Pavletic","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Angell Animal Medical Center, Boston, MA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1272","reference":[{"issue":"4","key":"ref1","series-title":"Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract.","first-page":"663","article-title":"Reconstruction of congenital nose, cleft primary palate, and lip disorders","volume":"46","author":"Fiani N","year":"2016","unstructured":"Fiani N, Verstraete FJM, Arzi B.
