Abstract

Laryngomalacia is existing in the manifestation of stridor, a high-pitched, musical, vibrating, multiphase inspiratory noise occurring within the first 10 days of life. Recognizing symptoms that determine disease severity helps anticipate end results. Infants with stridor who do not have remarkable feeding-related symptoms can be managed confidently, without intervention. Infants, who have stridor and feeding-related symptoms, are managed from acid suppression therapy. Those with added symptoms of aspiration, failure to thrive, and consequences of airway obstruction and hypoxia require surgical intervention. Most with laryngomalacia will have mild-to-moderate symptoms and not require surgery.
