The clinical and physiologic features of 28 infants with Pierre Robin syndrome and those of 20 infants with various types of nasal obstruction were reviewed to determine whether different causes of upper airway obstructure may lead to a common syndrome. The patients had no significant differences in
BACKGROUND
Ex utero intrapartum treatment (EXIT) procedures have emerged as a viable option for potentially life-saving procedures in fetuses with predicted airway compromise at birth. The ability to maintain maternal-fetal uteroplacental perfusion allows for prolonged procedures in a stable fetal
Cerebro-costo-mandibular syndrome (CCMS) consists of severe micrognathia, glossoptosis, posterior rib-gap defects and developmental delay. It may cause upper airway obstruction andflail chest, resulting in neonatal hypoxia, and possibly death. Early airway management or surgical intervention to
OBJECTIVE
The Pierre Robin triad (PRT) consists of micrognathia-retrognathia, glossoptosis, and an oval or cleft palate. The goal of this study was to identify patterns of similarity to and differences from the two previous temporal bone studies of the PRT.
METHODS
Seven children with the PRT (ages,
BACKGROUND
Pierre-Robin Sequence (PRS), a triad of micro/retrognathia, glossoptosis, and upper airway obstruction, usually in conjunction with a cleft palate is frequently associated with significant morbidity. Mandibular distraction osteogenesis (MDO) is an effective treatment modality to address
BACKGROUND
We conducted a monthly epidemiological survey to determine the birth prevalence of Robin sequence (RS) and the use of various therapeutic approaches for it.
METHODS
Between August 2011 and July 2012, every pediatric department in Germany was asked to report new admissions of infants with
