摘要：Gender based differences in medical treatment has been recognised due to conscious or unconscious reasons. The epidemiological study of a defined geographic population can serve as a means of establishing data important for the diagnosis, treatment, and counseling of patients with cleft lip and cleft palate. These conditions are sensitive topics of conversations, often affected by the stigma of physical birth deformities and cultural myths. The aim of the present study is to analyse the association of gender distribution in patients who underwent cleft surgeries. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study was done in a hospital setting. The data was collected from the patient software system of Saveetha Dental College and the samples included patients who have undergone cleft surgeries. The data collected was tabulated and statistically analysed using SPSS software. The results were tabulated and graphically represented. RESULTS: In the present study, a total of 212 patients were included among which 102 patients were male and 110 patients were female. 48% of male patients and 51% of female patients have undergone cleft surgeries. CONCLUSION: This study constitutes that no significant difference has been observed with respect to gender in patients who have undergone cleft surgeries.
