  • Ages 6 to 14 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Child

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with complete maxillary alveolar cleft either unilateral or bilateral at the age of mixed dentition (between 7 and 13 years old).
  • repaired cleft lip.
  • Patients with cleft lip and palate who have not undergone alveolar grafting procedure.

About this study

Official title: Alveolar Cleft Reconstruction Using Double Iliac Corticocancellous Bone Blocks Technique Versus Particulate Autogenous Spongy Bone Graft From Anterior Iliac Crest. A Randomized Clinical Trial

Reconstruction of Alveolar Cleft Using Double Iliac Corticocancellous Blocks in comparison with the gold standard technique ( cancellous bone ) both from anterior iliac crest.

Read the detailed description

This study will compare two techniques for the proper alveolar cleft reconstruction with adequate bone bridge formation of maximum bone quality, contour, and minimal resorption. One of them is packing autogenous particulate spongy bone from the anterior iliac crest (gold standard). While the other technique would be reconstruction of the cleft with two iliac corticocancellous bone blocks with cancellous bone in between. which benefits of the rapid revascularization and healing of cancellous bone and the strong mechanical properties of cortical bone that will aid in obtaining a proper reconstruction and form for the defect and can be applied to defects of any size.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Measuring graft height in millimeters

    CBCT scan analysis for measuring mean graft height in millimeters of every graft of both groups of patients immediately after surgery and compare it with CBCT scan analysis for measuring mean graft height in millimeters after 9 months of every graft for assessment of grafts height stability of both groups over 9 months.

    Measured: 9 months

  2. Measuring graft width in millimeters

    CBCT scan analysis for measuring mean graft width in millimeters of every graft of both groups of patients immediately after surgery and compare it with CBCT scan analysis for measuring mean graft width in millimeters after 9 months of every graft for assessment of grafts width stability of both groups over 9 months.

    Measured: 9 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Measuring graft volume in cubic millimeter

    CBCT scan analysis for measuring graft volume in cubic millimeter of every graft of both groups of patients immediately after surgery and compare it with CBCT scan analysis for measuring graft volume in cubic millimeter after 9 months of every graft for assessment of grafts volume stability of both groups over 9 months.

    Measured: 9 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Grafting of the alveolar cleft in people with Alveolar Cleft, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Louai A Raafat, BDS (00201142904383, louai.raafat@dentistry.cu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Measuring graft height in millimeters (time frame: 9 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Mar 2022.
