The diagnosis of the Pierre Robin Syndrome, cleft palate, micrognathia, and golssoptosis is re-emphasized. The clinical symptoms are discussed. The treatments advocated in the literature are described. A simple traction device, employing a horizontal suture through the mid-body of the tongue and an elastic traction system, is explained. Five cases of the syndrome are reported. In one the condition was mild; in the other four the tongue traction device was employed. In one sick infant with a congenital heart disease a tracheotomy had to be performed. Much difficulty was experienced following this, and the operation is only recommended when traction alone does not control the handling of the profusion of mucus and bouts of apnea. A removable acrylic palatine obturator was used as an adjunct to nipple feedings in three patients, with excellent results. The method of production of this "false palate" is described.
