Audiologic findings in Pierre Robin sequence.
The hearing status of 20 individuals with Pierre Robin Sequence (micrognathia, cleft palate, and glossoptosis leading to respiratory distress and feeding difficulty) was examined and compared to a sample exhibiting only isolated cleft palate. The results indicate that there is no difference in the prevalence or degree of hearing loss in these two groups.
