According to your description, this situation is likely to belong to a clinical manifestation of cleft lip and palate syndrome, that is, Pi-Luo sequence sign. The main manifestations are micrognathia, U-shaped cleft palate and tongue drop.

The repair time of cleft palate is later than that of non-syndromic cleft lip and palate patients. On the one hand, glottis are difficult to be exposed due to the obstruction of mandible and the drop of tongue, which leads to the difficulty of intubation anesthesia. On the other hand, surgical closure of cleft palate will further narrow the respiratory tract and increase the risk of postoperative dyspnea. Therefore, in order to ensure the patient's life safety, parents should pay attention to the doctor's assessment of the operation risk, strengthen the patient's nutrition, and wait patiently for the operation opportunity.
