Аннотация
BACKGROUND: The prognosis for Pierre Robin sequence is often closely correlated with direct postnatal asphyxia (ARDS) and permanent cerebral damage. Unfortunately, all of the well-known treatments entail many problems, which often lead to medical care of the patient for many years. Distraction osteogenesis was recently introduced as a very promising procedure. We revised this concept for newborn children aged up to 3 months.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The first patient was operated with an extraoral distractor at an age of approx. 3 months. The second patient was operated at an age of approx. 2 months. A new distractor was used, conceived specifically by our department for newborn children.
RESULTS: Distraction osteogenesis was successful in both cases. After 20 days the first patient was able to breathe without the tracheotomy cannula. In the second case, we removed the nasopharyngeal tube successfully on the 7th postoperative day. The bilateral length gain amounted to 20 mm in the first case and 15 mm in the second.
DISCUSSION: The usual jaw distraction osteogenesis has many disadvantages in babies: scar formation in the places depressed by pins and early pin loss. For the above-mentioned reasons, we developed a new type of extraoral distractor, which solves these problems. Less required space and the absence of pins resulting in fewer disfiguring scars are the clinical advantages of this new distractor.
