Abstract:Background
Orofacial clefts (OFCs) are among the most common congenital anomalies accounting for over 4.6 million cases. OFCs are associated with significant morbidity and a heightened risk of infant mortality in many developing nations due to barriers to accessing multidisciplinary care. Rwanda has a considerable burden of OFCs. This scoping review aims to identify knowledge gaps, establish research agendas, and inform decision-making for policy redirection in Rwanda regarding OFCs.
