Non-Surgical Treatment for Pierre Robin Sequence with Dr. HyeRan Choo

In this episode of Scrubcast, host Rachel Baker interviews Dr. HyeRan Choo, a clinical associate professor in the Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Stanford University. Dr. Choo discusses her journey into dentistry and orthodontics, which began in Korea. Dr. Choo is doing innovative work treating Pierre Robin Sequence—a rare congenital condition—using a non-surgical method. This novel approach, developed to alleviate the condition's characteristic symptoms without surgery, scoops the tongue out of the airway, allowing immediate relief for affected babies. So far, Dr. Choo has treated 25 babies with the Orthodontic Airway Plate. The episode concludes with Dr. Choo sharing valuable advice and acknowledging her mentor, Dr. Park. 00:00 Welcome to Scrubcast 00:11 Meet Dr. HyeRan Choo: From Dentistry to Innovative Surgery 01:09 The Journey to a Non-Surgical Breakthrough for Pierre Robin's Sequence 03:57 The Revolutionary Orthodontic Airway Plate: A Game-Changer for Babies 07:43 Expanding the Horizon: Future Steps and Challenges 11:37 Reflections and Advice: Learning from a Mentor 13:07 Wrapping Up For more information about Stanford University's Department of Surgery, please visit our website: surgery.stanford.edu
