Thepcharoennirund S 
A prospective study from August 1987 to April 1996 at the Outpatient Pediatric Surgical
Unit, Ratchaburi Hospital, of labial separations performed under topical analgesic cream in 31
labial fusions. The ages ranged from 5 months to 5 years. Topical analgesic cream (EMLA
cream) produces adequate anesthesia for labial separation in children without causing pain. It is a
slinple, safe and effective technique including a very short duration of therapy that should be
performed in children with labial fusion.
