Background: This study was carried out to investigate if there is a relationship of cleft lip and / or palate (different types) and ABO blood group. Materials and methods: Blood group test including Rh factor was undertaken for 245 cleft children, 53.4% were males and 46.4% were females. Results: The percentage of blood group A is highest in cleft lip and palate patients , and blood group B was lowest, Rh+ were found to be 91.02% and there was a significant difference between cleft group and Iraqi national bank , with no significant difference between different cleft types. Conclusions: Although blood types are genetically inherited the environment potentially can determine which types in population will be passed on more frequently to the next generation. |
