“…As with most congenital malformations, the consequences of RS on the development of the child are a crucial question. For RS, the answer depends on two points 2 . First, the developmental outcome mostly depends on the underlying diagnosis.…”

AimWe aimed to investigate the developmental outcome of children with Robin sequence (RS) for whom continuous positive airway pressure was the main strategy to release upper airway obstruction.MethodsWe included children with isolated RS or RS associated with Stickler syndrome who were aged 15 months to 6 years. We used the French version of the Child Development Inventory and calculated the developmental quotient (DQ) for eight different domains and the global DQ (DQ‐global). We searched for determinants of risk of delay.ResultsOf the 87 children, for 71%, the developmental evolution was within the norm (DQ‐global ≥86 or ≥−1 SD), 29% were at high risk of delay (DQ‐global <86 or <−1 SD), and only 3% were at very high risk of delay (DQ‐global <70 or <−2 SD). The DQs for expressive language and language comprehension were lower in our study population than the general population, but an improvement was noticed with the children's growth.ConclusionRisk of a developmental delay was not greater for children with the most severe respiratory phenotype than the others. Children whose mothers had low education levels were more at risk than the others.
