Robin sequence: what the multidisciplinary approach can do

Abstract: Robin sequence (RS) is a commonly encountered triad of micrognathia, glossoptosis, and airway obstruction, with or without a cleft palate. The management of airway obstruction is of paramount importance, and multiple reviews and retrospective series outline the diagnosis and treatment of RS. This article focuses on the multidisciplinary nature of RS and the specialists’ contributions and thought processes regarding the management of the RS child from birth to skeletal maturity. This review demonstrates that th… Show more

“…Por otro lado, desde la introducción de la distracción mandibular, la glosopexia es menos usada, pero aun en nuestros días se describe como un tratamiento en los centros en donde no se tenga experiencia en cirugía craneofacial o en el uso de distractores mandibulares 19 . Se reporta que se mantiene durante un año hasta que el paciente se encuentre en condiciones para rea- lizar la palatoplastia, presentando un alivio inmediato de la obstrucción de la vía aérea 20,21 .

“…El cartílago condilar aparece de la novena a decima semana de vida intrauterina como un cartílago secundario rodeado de tejido mesenquimal compuesto por una capa delgada de células no diferenciadas 12 , que por mitosis formarán toda la estructura del cóndilo. Un crecimiento irregular del mismo se encuentra presente en las asimetrías mandibulares de origen genético 12 , como la microsomía hemifacial 13 ; y podria influenciar al establecimiento de relaciones esqueleticas desfavorables como el retrognatismo mandibular 14 .…”
