Abstract

Reliable estimates of the incidence of the Robin Anomalad (Pierre Robin Syndrome) are not readily available in standard texts. An analysis of admissions to the Mersey Regional Cleft Palate Unit (Alder Hey Children's Hospital, Liverpool and the Royal Liverpool Children's Hospital, Heswall) over a 23-year period suggests an incidence of 1:8500 live births.
