“…[ 10 ] PRS, in association with other genetic syndromes, may carry a very high recurrence risk. In the case of PR anomalad, the primary defect lies in the arrested development and ensuing hypoplasia of the mandible, ultimately producing the characteristic “bird facies.”[ 11 ] This in turn prevents the normal descent of the tongue between the palatal shelves, resulting in a cleft palate. [ 12 ] Airway obstruction and feeding difficulty associated with PRS require invasive therapeutic measures.…”

The Pierre Robin Sequence is a rare craniofacial malformation that invariably combines retrognathism, glossoptosis, and upper airway obstruction, with a prevalence ranging from 1 in 8000 to 1 in 14,000 newborns. Although formally described by the French physician Pierre Robin in 1923, older and even ancient as far back as the Babylonian times, descriptions have been identified. Dr Pierre Robin's perspicacity lay in putting up a treatment for the patients presenting those symptoms. That is why his successors honored his work by naming this disease after him.
