Tissue expansion can be a valuable tool in the reconstruction of soft-tissue defects in craniofacial clefts. To our knowledge, there have been no reports in the literature of the use of tissue expanders to help solve this problem. We report the case of a child with an atypical Tessier no. 3 craniofacial cleft who had a forehead tissue expander placed, inflated, and thus used to provide sufficient local facial skin for repair of the soft-tissue defect.
