We describe an infant with popliteal pterygia, syngnathia, cleft lip and palate, and retrognathia diagnosed with popliteal pterygium syndrome (PPS). The neonatal course was complicated by severe obstructive apnea necessitating tracheostomy.
This report illustrates the potential for airway compromise in PPS patients and the need for thorough neonatal airway assessment.
我们描述了一名患有腘窝翼状胬肉、并指(趾)畸形、唇腭裂和下颌后缩的婴儿,诊断为腘窝翼状胬肉综合征(PPS)。新生儿期因严重的阻塞性呼吸暂停而病情复杂,需要进行气管切开术。
本报告说明了PPS患者气道受损的可能性以及对新生儿气道进行全面评估的必要性。
