Disease Ontology ID: DDTO:0000451
Disease Description: A condition where the two halves of the upper lip do not join together. Cleft palate and cleft lip are often seen together.
Inherit Mode: Cleft palate is believed to be an autosomal recessive trait in the Brittany spaniel.In the English and French bulldog, pointer, and shih tzu, the trait may be autosomal dominant with incomplete penetrance.
Disease Symptom: Affected pups are born with the condition. A minor defect will cause little or no problem, while a more severe defect will cause signs such as a chronic nasal discharge (that may include food), poor growth, aspiration pneumonia (from inhalation of food), or even death.
Disease Cause: -
Disease Diagnose: Your veterinarian will diagnose these conditions on physical examination.
Treat Method: Mild problems may not require any treatment, but more serious defects will require surgical repair to prevent complications such as aspiration pneumonia.
Breeder Advice: Affected animals should not be used for breeding, and it is prudent to avoid breeding their parents and siblings as well.
