    Author: Patel H, Gregor MB, Kleinhaus S.
    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 1992 Dec; 27(12):1512-4. PubMed ID: 1469555.
    Abstract:
    Since its introduction, the anterior cricoid split has proven to be a safe and effective procedure for the management of infants with acquired subglottic stenosis. In this article we report an unusual complication--an aerocele, which occurred on the 14th day following an anterior cricoid split on a 9-month-old child. The possible etiology and successful management of the aerocele are reviewed.
