Popis: Purpose: Pierre-Robin Sequence (PRS) is characterized by micrognathia and glossoptosis and can result in upper airway obstruction. Prenatal diagnosis of PRS facilitates delivery team preparation for an airway emergency. Routine 20-week ultrasounds screen facial features and can characterize mandibular morphology and the maxillomandibular relationship. This study aimed to evaluate 20-week fetal ultrasounds to determine if specific facial measurements could predict PRS diagnosis and disease severity. Methods: A retrospective case control study of 40 patients with PRS and 40 gender-matched controls (24 male, 16 female in each cohort) between January 2014 and May 2019 was performed. Respiratory and surgical interventions were recorded and scored for severity. Mid-sagittal profile images of the ultrasounds were reviewed and measured for 3 parameters to assess micrognathia: facial nasomental angle (FNMA), facial-maxillary angle (FMA), and alveolar overjet.
