        | Briefly describe the anatomical characteristics and impairment of function seen in cleft palate and hip displaysia. |  | Definition 
 
        | Both cleft palate and hip displaysia are congenital abnormalities affecting skeletal formation.  Cleft palate is a condition in which the left and right halves of the palate fail to fuse medially.  The resulting opening between the nasal and oral cavities may cause difficulty sucking.  Aspiration of food and aspiration pneumonia may result.  IN developmental dysplasia of the hip, the acetabulum is poorly formed and the head of the femur may be partially or completely dislocated.  Hip dysplasica can lead to dgenerative arthritis of the hip joint. |  |
