Five decades of orofacial cleft management and research in Brazil

Our research team read with interest the article by Best et al.1 regarding short-term surgical missions for the management of orofacial clefts (OFCs) in South America. We congratulate the authors, but wish to make some observations. The authors stated that Chile has the only health system in South America with government-guaranteed access to surgical care for OFCs, and that the other countries on the continent are left to depend on temporary international or national campaigns or short-term surgical missions.
