Summary
The authors suggest a system of criteria for as-sessing residual and secondary deformities of the nose, upper lip and oral cavity of adult patients with a cleft lip and palate after surgical treatment in childhood.
The results of a survey in a group of such patients using the proposed system, as well as the results of studying the level of their quality of life using the SF-36 questionnaire, the “Subjective control level” question-naire and interviewing are presented.
Recommendations for further treatment tactics are given.

Keywords: residual and secondary deformations, cleft lip and palate, assessment system, medical reha-bilitation, follow up, quality of life.
