  • Title: A variant of laryngomalacia in the neurologically normal older child.
    Author: Hitchings A, Crampsey D, Kubba H.
    Journal: Int J Pediatr Otorhinolaryngol; 2007 Apr; 71(4):571-4. PubMed ID: 17239448.
    Abstract:
    Laryngomalacia is the most common cause of stridor in infancy. It is generally considered to be a fairly benign condition necessitating surgical intervention in relatively few cases. It resolves by the age of 4 years in the majority of children. We present three cases in which laryngomalacia persisted and actually worsened in later childhood and postulate a possible mechanism for this.
