Psychological experience of mothers of cleft lip and palate children in Senegal
Cleft lip and palate are the most common congenital facial malformations in the world. For a long time, research and scientific studies have focused on cleft lip and palate in order to understand more about it, but also to find support strategies for parents who are still confronted with the traumatic reality of the occurrence of a congenital malformation. However, it appears that in the sub-region and particularly in Senegal, few studies have focused on the psychological experience of mothers of cleft lip and palate children.
