Abstract
Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) is one of the most common craniofacial birth defects and little is known about its aetiology. Initial studies of cytogenetic analysis provided the clues for possible genes involved in the pathogenesis of NSCL/P. This approach led to the identification of SATB2 gene on 2q32-q33. The aim of this study was to determine the association between SATB2 mutations and NSCL/P.
