  • Title: Novel use of high-flow nasal cannula therapy in the management of pyriform aperture stenosis: case report.
    Author: Fuzi J, Teng A, Saddi V, Soma M.
    Journal: J Laryngol Otol; 2020 Jun; 134(6):558-561. PubMed ID: 32618525.
    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Pyriform aperture stenosis is a rare form of congenital nasal obstruction; it poses a management dilemma for otolaryngologists and physicians alike. It can result in poor weight gain and potentially life-threatening airflow obstruction. The challenge lies in the difficulty to predict which patients will require invasive operative management versus conservative therapy alone. CASE REPORT: This case demonstrates the successful use of high-flow nasal cannula therapy in a young child with pyriform aperture stenosis.
