Cleft lip adhesion is an alternative to NAM in children with wide, complete clefts. It is a surgery that brings the parts of the cleft closer together in preparation for cleft lip repair. During a cleft lip adhesion, silicone stents are usually placed in the nose and kept in there until cleft lip repair. This surgery usually requires a 1-night stay in the hospital.
