N2 - UNLABELLED: We report an infant suffering from Pierre Robin sequence complicated by gastro-oesophageal reflux and failure to thrive, which were resistant to conservative therapy and a hemifundoplication. Gastro-oesophageal reflux was accompanied by supraventricular tachycardia, treated with propafenone. Tachycardia may be present in Pierre Robin sequence as a consequence of cardiac parasympathetic imbalance. The patient recovered completely from the gastro-oesophageal reflux and tachycardia after redo-fundoplication (Nissen) and a hiatoplasty were performed.CONCLUSION: This case shows that a thorough search for gastro-oesophageal reflux is indicated in each case of Pierre Robin sequence with failure to thrive.
