[Differential diagnosis of stenosing laryngotracheitis in children].
The present paper is a review of the alterations occurring in stenosing laryngotracheobronchic pathology. Stenosis is often caused by associated alterations of various segments of the respiratory tract and neighbouring organs (cardiovascular malformations, esophageal, etc.). The importance of the autonomous nervous system in the evolution of acute malignant laryngotracheitis is emphasized. A simple original method for humidification of the air breathed by tracheotomized children is described. The show the contribution of radiography to the differential diagnosis of stenosis of the respiratory tract.
