Pierre-Robin syndrome (PRS) is a congenital disorder in which affected individuals present with micro/retrognathia, difficulty feeding, cleft lip/palate, glossoptosis and difficulty breathing. PRS affects between 1 in 8 500 to 1 in 20 000 births. The nature of the congenital defects results in patients presenting with numerous complications including malnutrition, aspiration pneumonia, recurrent local infections, dental abnormalities, respiratory problems as well as aesthetic and functional defects.
