Abstract:

Pierre Robin sequence (PRS) is a congenital disease caused by the micrognathia, leading to glossoptosis, which causes mechanical upper airway obstruction and poor oral feeding. Severe PRS patients often need surgical treatment because non-surgical treatment is ineffective. In recent years, bilateral mandibular distraction osteogenesis (MDO) has become the most important surgical method for PRS. At present, there are still differences in the surgical indications, preoperative design, surgical procedure, postoperative care and prognosis of MDO among medical institutions. Therefore, this article was to give a systematical introduction about the progress of bilateral MDO from preoperative design to postoperative nursing by reviewing relevant literature. This paper summarized the current research status of PRS patients treated by MDO and discussed some existing clinical problems in the hope of relieving the symptoms of airway obstruction, reducing secondary jaw bone deformity and surgical complications, and promoting the osteogenesis quality of PRS patients.

Key words: Mandible, Osteogenesis, distraction, Pierre Robin sequence, Micrognathism
