“…PRS patients have increased energy expenditure from the increased work of breathing coupled with feeding and swallowing difficulties (114). A significant number of PRS patients will require nasogastric feeding, particularly in the first few months of life, to maintain adequate nutrition and growth (115, 116).…”

Summary Children with craniofacial syndromes are at risk of sleep disordered breathing, the most common being obstructive sleep apnea. Midface hypoplasia in children with craniosynostosis and glossoptosis in children with Pierre Robin syndrome are well recognized risk factors, but the etiology is often multifactorial and many children have multilevel airway obstruction. We examine the published evidence and explore the current management strategies in these complex patients. Some treatment modalities are similar to those used in otherwise healthy children such as as adenotonsillectomy, positive pressure ventilation and in the refractory cases, tracheostomy. However, there are some distinct approaches such as nasopharyngeal airways, tongue lip adhesion, mandibular distraction osteogenesis in children with Pierre Robin sequence, and midface advancement in children with craniosynostoses. Clinicians should have a low threshold for referral for evaluation of sleep-disordered-breathing in these patients.

“…The present work points out the importance of the application of an early treatment program from the early stages of childhood, initially based on the two vital functions: feeding (swallowing difficulties) and breathing (Caron, Pluijimers, Joosten, Mathijssen, Schroeff, Dunaway and Koudstaal, 2015). Madi, Shetty, Babu and Achalli, 2014); (Van de Lande, Caron, Pluijmers, Joosten, Streppel, Dunaway, ... & Padwa, B. L. 2018); (Vila, Garmendía, Felipe, Suarez, Sánchez and Álvarez, 2010) as well as the need for a rigorous audiological follow-up of the baby to favor an adequate development of language, as well as the detection of difficulties in nasal permeability or a possible tubal dysfunction, which in short, allow the establishment of standardized respiratory and swallow patterns (Borras and Rosell, 2008) providing stability to the complex process of orofacial growth (Villanueva, 2014).…”

This study shows the initial pathology, the evolution and the treatment of a clinical case of Hemifacial Microsomia from childhood to adolescence, placing special emphasis on the approach of the case from the point of view of Speech and language pathology. The objective of this research was to show the performances of the speech pathologist at the level of evaluation and rehabilitation of the functional alterations involved: respiration, chewing and speech. The methodology used was that of the case study, for which purpose it was decided to chronologically present the instruments and measures used, as well as the interventions carried out in three phases: from 0 to 4 years, from 5 to 11 and from 12 to 16 years. The results show the favorable evolution of the patient in the acquisition and mainte-nance of a pattern of nasal breathing, which includes the correct placement of the tongue at rest, the acquisition of a pattern of alternating bilateral chewing and a remarkable improvement in the quantity and quality of masticatory cycles, as well as the normalization of labial competence and the elimination of noises during swallowing. On the other hand, in the rehabilitative treatment performed after the arthroplasty, positive results were also recorded in the range of mandibular movement at the vertical and lateral levels, restoring retrusion. Therefore, we concluded that speech and language intervention was beneficial both in the rehabilitation of the functions and in the aesthetic changes at the level of the orofacial structure

“…The presence of syndromes that manifest in craniofacial malformations, particularly those that affect the oral cavity, require not only a prompt and precocious diagnosis, but also strict planning by a multidisciplinary team to prioritize and screen for potentially serious events [20][21] , a finding that was observed in the present clinical case.…”
