They help to understand the intrauterine developmental steps of the facial region. In this particular case with congenital palatosubglossal synechia, anterior soft palate of the patient with Pierre Robin sequence was repaired with the oral mucosal flap elevated from the floor of the mouth by using the synechial band as the pedicle of the flap
