Pierre Robin syndrome is a triad of micrognathia, glossoptosis, and cleft palate that results in upper airway obstruction and feeding problems. This syndrome occurred in six cases; five of these cases required surgical correction to alleviate the airway problems. ⋯ The patients have had resolution of the airway and feeding problems, with early discharge from the hospital. There has been minimal morbidity and no mortality associated with the procedure.
