Beam International是一家有条件进行免费手术的慈善架构，其告诉BBC，在中国，每年大约有600名婴儿在出生时有兔唇。

Surgery for cleft lips can costbetween 5,000 ($800; £520) and 7,000 yuan in China, and for cleft palates up to10,000 yuan, said the charity's China director, Shan Li.

兔唇的手术费在5000-8000元之间，治疗“唇腭裂”的费用甚至到了1万元，慈善机构的中国负责人说。

Babies who struggle to feed andwhose families cannot afford treatment or find a charity to help them wouldoften not survive, she said, while some people may have to save for years topay for the surgery.

对于那些没有能力养孩子，不能够支付治疗费或者找不到慈善机构来帮助他们的家庭的孩子，一般都不会活下去，她说，但有些人需要存上很多年的钱才能支付手术费。
