Glossopexy for upper airway obstruction in Robin sequence.
Cleft Palate-craniofacial Journal 1992 May
A modified glossopexy is described with results of the operation in 24 patients who were specifically selected based on nasopharyngoscopic examination of the upper airway. Only patients with documented glossoptosis on endoscopy were selected for glossopexy. The procedure is designed to use two points of attachment for the tongue, one at the mandibular alveolus and the other at the lower lip. The genioglossus is also released to lengthen the tongue. All patients had resolution of their upper airway obstruction. There was only one partial dehiscence. The glossopexies were all released at the time of palate repair, usually before the first birthday.
