The labial palatine fissures are congenital mal-

formation, of multifactorial inheritance, caused by de-

fects in the fusion of the constituent structures of the

palate and lips in the intrauterine phase [1]. In Brazil,

from 1: 600 to 1: 700 live births are affected by this

manifestation. As a result of the inconsistencies of this

process, several changes occur, such malformation of

the teeth and difficulties in speech developtment[2].

Analyze the distribution of the prevalence of la-bial palatine fissures in the eight Health Regions of To-cantins in the last 10 years (2008 -2018).

INTRODUCTION

AIM

METHODS A survey of cases of the Information System on Live Births (SINASC) was carried out. Whose data source is the Declaration of Live Birth (DNV), which contains a field for information on congenital malfor-mations. Following tabulation and statistical analysis in Microsoft Excel based on the Health Regions of the State of Tocantins.

RESULTS There were 137 cases recorded in the state of Tocantins. The majority - 34.3% - comes from the Capim Dourado region. Followed by the “Médio Nor-te Araguaia” (29,2%),“Cantão” (10.2%) and “Amor Perfeito” (10.2%). The year with the lowest inciden-ce rate is 2010 (6.5%), and the highest, 2017 with 14.5%. In both years, the region with the highest number of cases is “Capim Dourado”.

CONCLUSIONS According to the data analysis, it is possible to observe that there was no annual constancy of cases in the analyzed period of time. In 2017, there was the highest number of births - 20 newborns - about 15% of the total. Therefore, the analysis re-quires more detailed and extensive studies to verify the consistency and strength of association of the analyzed data, and to generate new correlations. In view of this, to enable appropriate actions of con-duct and treatment within the state public health.
