“…The airway management of PRS cases require special attention, and preoperative monitoring should be guaranteed. If the patient has a high risk for general anesthesia, regional anesthesia can be a good alternative (5). In fact, regional anesthesia has been shown to be a good alternative in neonates by previous studies (6).…”

The children with Pierre Robin Sequence (PRS) have anatomical and physiological challenges of airway management. The children with PRS have difficult airway caused by micrognathia, glossoptosis, and cleft palate. The patients' airway management who have PRS is dificult and requires attention. Here we present a 5-year-old girl with PRS, admitted to our hospital for cleft palate repair surgery. She also had a history of traсheostomy. Otholaryngologists had to perform trachestomy for this operation. The patient had an uneventful operative and postoperative period. We wanted to discuss the difficulties of airway management of the children with PRS with this case report. Anaesthesiologists must be ready for the challenges and otholaryngologists, must also be ready to manage these difficult airways. In addition, bronchospasm and airway obstruction after extubation are very common complications, so careful postoperative monitoring should be performed.

For operations under the umbilicus, regional anesthesia can be a good alternative in children who are at high risk from general anesthesia ( 8 ). In fact, previous studies have demonstrated that regional anesthesia is a safe alternative in neonates ( 9 ).…”
