  • Title: The dilemma of a lateral pharyngeal mass causing stridor in a neonate.
    Author: Dipak RN, Kailesh P, Sherry MJ, Anindya C.
    Journal: Med J Malaysia; 2005 Oct; 60(4):520-2. PubMed ID: 16570723.
    Abstract:
    Neonatal stridor resulting from intrinsic or extrinsic aberration in the upper respiratory tract often poses not only a diagnostic problem, but also a difficult airway and a dilemma as to the necessity / timing of surgical intervention. A 45 day old female child with increasing stridor since birth was managed by emergency intubation and CT scan followed by excision biopsy of the cystic left sided parapharyngeal mass via a transcervical approach. On histopathology, the excised specimen was reported as cystic salivary choristoma.
