Care for congenital abnormalities
We understand that you want to give your children the best life possible — so do we.
Finding out your child has a congenital abnormality — sometimes called a birth defect — can be full of unknowns. We can help. At Wesley Children’s Hospital in Wichita, Kansas, we provide support, information and corrective treatment for infants with cleft lip and cleft palate.
Congenital abnormalities we treat
Many birth abnormalities can be detected and treated during fetal development through maternal-fetal care; however, there are some defects that may go undiagnosed until after birth. Treatment for these congenital abnormalities has improved greatly over the years, enabling our team to provide you and your child with effective care and unwavering support.
Our maternal-fetal services
To help diagnose congenital disorders, our maternal-fetal team offers comprehensive ultrasounds, screening and diagnostics as well as fetal monitoring. During your pregnancy, we will create a comprehensive care plan so you and your child remain as safe and healthy as possible. If issues do arise, doctors and nurses will quickly reevaluate and adjust the care plan to ensure you and your baby receive the treatment you need.
Our pediatric surgeries
If your child is born with a congenital abnormality, our board-certified surgeons are prepared to provide assist. Our medical team specializes in treating cleft lip and cleft palate, helping young children regain regular speech and eating abilities.
We also offer corrective treatment for craniosynostosis and reconstruction surgery for facial injuries. Should your child need ongoing treatment after the procedure, we will coordinate a care plan that fits their unique needs.
