| Abstract | Newborns with Pierre Robin sequence (PRS) have mandibular hypoplasia, glossoptosis, and possibly cleft palate. Their facial appearance is characteristic. The further facial development is controversial. The aim of this study was to analyze the facial development of children with PRS.In a prospective, cross-sectional study, 344 healthy children and 37 children with PRS and cleft palate younger than 8 years were scanned three-dimensionally. Twenty-one standard anthropometric landmarks were identified, and the images were superimposed. Growth curves for normal facial development were calculated. The facial morphology of children with PRS was compared with that of healthy children.The facial growth of children with PRS in the transversal and vertical direction was normal. In the sagittal direction, the mandibular deficit was confirmed. Except for the orbital landmarks and nasion, all landmarks of the midface demonstrated a significant sagittal deficit. This difference to healthy children remained constant for all ages.Our study cannot support the theory of mandibular catch-up growth. The sagittal deficit of the midface could be observed in all ages. This indicates that children with PRS have a very early, severe, and persistent underdevelopment of this part of the face. We conclude that this disturbance must be addressed in early childhood with orthodontic and speech therapy. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
