[Frequency of urinary tract abnormalities in cleft lip-maxilla-palate patients].

Malformations of the urinary tract favour urinary tract infection; on the other hand, a urinary tract infection is often the first indication of a malformation of the urinary tract. Further signs are externally visible malformations, such as cheilognathopalatoschisis. In two years we examined 53 children with schistases urologically and found urinary tract anomalies in 39,6%.
