Congenital nasal pyriform aperture stenosis is a rare cause of airway obstruction in the newborn. Immediate recognition and therapy are essential for this potentially life-threatening condition. After initial management, which includes establishment of an oral airway, surgical repair of the stenotic bony inlet has been traditionally considered. We present a long-term follow-up of two patients with congenital pyriform aperture stenosis, who were managed expectantly. Pertinent embryology, clinical presentation, and general treatment strategies for these patients are also discussed.
先天性鼻梨状孔狭窄是新生儿气道梗阻的罕见原因。对于这种可能危及生命的情况，立即识别和治疗至关重要。在包括建立口腔气道在内的初始处理之后，传统上认为应对狭窄的骨性入口进行手术修复。我们报告了两名先天性梨状孔狭窄患者的长期随访情况，这两名患者采用了观察等待的处理方式。还讨论了这些患者相关的胚胎学、临床表现及一般治疗策略。
