[Neonatal stridor. Description of a case of double aortic arch].
Neonatal stridor often relates with a serious respiratory distress. We report a case of stridor appeared in tenth day of life. In this case of double aortic arch the surgical intervention at 25 days had a favourable outcome. Three months later the child was completely asymptomatic. An early diagnosis allows a prompt surgical approach with a favourable outcome. We outline the diagnostic procedure in neonatal stridor.
