| Resumo: | Pierre Robin sequence was first described as a syndrome; however, it is currently recognized as a sequence that includes mi crognathia, glossoptosis, and paroxysmal respiratory obstructions. Airway long-term treatment is necessary to avoid serious compli cations of this condition. Mandibular distraction osteogenesis (MDO) is an effective treatment for tongue-based airway obstruction in children with severe Pierre Robin sequence. The authors de scribed 2 cases of new-born children diagnosed with severe Pierre Robin sequence, treated according to a fixed protocol, that is, fol lowing diagnosis, the children were taken to the surgical center for tracheofibroscopy and tracheostomy in cases of tongue im pingement. Following general anesthesia, the patients were submitted to MDO using a 20 mm pediatric distractor, bilaterally. After 1 mm of distraction daily and adequate bone healing, distractors were removed and the airway evaluated. The patients showed an im provement of the airway, allowing tracheostomy removal. In conclusion, mandibular distraction is an effective procedure for Pierre Robin sequence. |
