Pediatric laryngeal stenosis presents diagnostic and management challenges. A team approach involving multiple pediatric subspecialties is desirable. Management includes conservative endoscopic and aggressive open surgical intervention. Deciding which approach is appropriate presents a diagnostic dilemma. The long-term prognosis for most children is very good, and the successes are emotionally rewarding.
