Congenital micrognathia and secondary glossoptosis, with or without cleft palate, constitute the Robin anomaly. Neonates with this condition are usually at great risk for life-threatening respiratory and feeding problems. The approach to the management of infants with this condition has included, in order of increasing complexity, positioning of the patient, surgical tongue-lip adhesion and tracheostomy. Because of dissatisfaction with the effectiveness of surgical tongue-lip adhesion, and a desire to avoid performing a tracheostomy, a trial of intense non-surgical management was instituted. Ten consecutive patients admitted to the Boston Floating Hospital with Robin anomaly were treated successfully by positioning, without requiring tongue-lip adhesion or tracheostomy. Medical management procedures are outlined and discussed.
