INTRODUCTION. Palatal fistula is the persistence of abnormal communication between the nasal and oral cavity post palatoplasty, it´s the frequent complication with: high morbidity, feeding problems, inappropriate articulation of words, halitosis and psychosocial problems such as low self-esteem and social rejection. OBJECTIVE. Determine the factors associated with the development of palatal fistula. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Observational, analytical case-control study. From a population of 334 Clinical Histories, a sample of 89 was taken in the Plastic and Reconstructive Unit of the Carlos Andrade Marín Specialty Hospital from january 2010 to july 2019. Inclusion criteria: data from patients with cleft palate repaired by palatoplasty. Exclusion Criteria: patients without good postsurgical follow-up and with a cleft palate without surgical repair. The data were obtained from the AS400 system, the analysis was performed using the International Business Machines Statistical Package for the Social Sciences statistical program. RESULTS. The use of presurgical orthopedics (OR: 0,014; p<0,000) and feeding with breast milk (OR: 0,033; p<0,003) were protective factors. DISCUSSION. Presurgical orthopedics was the best molding option in patients with wide clefts for the approximation of the cleft bone segments, as a significant protective factor, exclusive breastfeeding was found, data that
coincides with the study by López YD., where he mentioned that it produced greater stimulation for palatine ridge fusion although it was not statistically significant. CONCLUSION. Statistically significant factors associated with the development of palatal fistula were the use of pre-surgical orthopedics and feeding with breast milk, classified as protective.
