As a plastic surgeon just out of training, how comfortable are you in doing cleft lip and/or palate repairs without a special 1 year fellowship training in craniofacial. In other words, do you HAVE to do a craniofacial fellowship in order to be able to repair cleft lips/palates? I understand that for craniosynostosis and other extensive facial trauma reconstructions you would probably benefit from a craniofacial year of training.
