title: Diplophonia in a neonate.
abstract: Diplophonia has never been described in a neonate. An unusual case, then, of diplophonia in a neonate is described here. There is a description of the acoustic characteristics of this infant's cry and a discussion of their significance. This contributes to a review of the differential diagnosis of diplophonia. Moreover, this case further shows the essential relation between laryngoscopic findings and acoustical data.
