Helping Children with Cleft Lip and Palate
</p>
<br>
<div class="content">
<p>
Moscow State Medical Stomatological University (MSMSU) is one of the premiere hospitals in Russia treating pediatric facial deformities. Over 500 maxillofacial surgeries are performed on children each year using the most advanced techniques and technology. The Smile Train sponsors the cleft treatment for disadvantaged children and RCWS administers the program.
<br>
In 2002 and 2006, the Society, MSMSU and Smile Train together organized symposiums on cleft care in Moscow and invited surgeons from all over Russia to attend. MSMSU administrators viewed this as a positive beginning toward bringing advanced care to children living far from the capital.
<br>
The University went on to establish the Healthy Child Foundation to conduct on site training in underserved areas, such as Irkutsk, Krasnodar, Saratov, and Nizhnevartovsk. MSMSU surgeons have traveled to such locales to conduct master classes and certify various specialists involved in treating maxillofacial deformities: surgeons, pediatricians, anesthesiologists, orthodontists, radiologists, and speech therapists. Over 70 children have received surgeries on these trips so far and now local surgeons will be able to use state of the art techniques for future cases.
<br>
RCWS granted the Healthy Child Foundation $10,000 in 2008 to expand its mobile training units to Ufa in the Republic of Bashkorstan. Doctors anticipate performing 50 surgeries and providing over 100 consultations, in addition to conducting seminars and lectures. This medical initiative will help many children avoid the stigma of facial deformities and help them have happier and healthier lives.
