MEDINA, Ma. Sol et al. Clinical case report: atypical congenital laryngeal pathology. A case of neonatal presentation and differential diagnosis. Arch. Pediatr. Urug. [online]. 2024, vol.95, n.2, e317.  Epub 01-Dic-2024. ISSN 0004-0584.  https://doi.org/10.31134/ap.95.2.16.

Laryngeal stenosis is one of the most frequent causes of airway obstruction in pediatrics. Congenital laryngeal stenosis is the third most common laryngeal congenital abnormality, after laryngomalacia and cord paralysis. The diagnosis is based on the patient’s symptoms, radiological evaluation, flexible laryngoscopy and rigid airway endoscopy under general anesthesia. We describe a case of congenital laryngeal stenosis with atypical presentation with a midline polyp, predominating dysphonia instead of respiratory obstruction.
