Children with Pierre Robin sequence can present challenging airway management issues. We describe a neonate with a life-threatening airway obstruction secondary to severe micrognathia and glossoptosis. When the patient was 9 days old, bilateral distraction osteogenesis was performed to lengthen the mandible by 17 mm. The patient was subsequently extubated without further airway or swallowing difficulties.
患有皮埃尔·罗宾序列征的儿童可能会出现具有挑战性的气道管理问题。我们描述了一名新生儿，由于严重小颌畸形和舌后坠导致危及生命的气道阻塞。当患者9天大时，进行了双侧牵张成骨术，使下颌骨延长了17毫米。患者随后拔管，未出现进一步的气道或吞咽困难。
