    Author: Christoforidis A, Tsakalides C, Chatziavramidis A, Karagianni P, Dimitriadou M, Konstantinidis I.
    Journal: Gene; 2013 Oct 15; 529(1):148-9. PubMed ID: 23954226.
    Abstract:
    We describe a case of an acquired subglottic cyst presented with persistent stridor and voice hoarsening in a baby diagnosed with Williams-Beuren syndrome that was born premature and required intubation during neonatal period. We also comment on whether this is a coincidence or there can be an association between impaired elastogenesis, a feature of patients with the syndrome and the formation of a subglottic cyst.
