Laryngomalacia is the most common laryngeal anomaly which causes inspiratory stridor in newborns. The disease is usually self-limiting and resolves before the age of two years. We present a case of severe laryngomalacia with feeding disorder and airway obstruction which needed surgical management--supraglottoplasty. The shortened aryepiglottic folds were incised using CO(2) laser and jet ventilation. The patient was observed at the hospital for one week after surgery and discharged. Four weeks after treatment, the patient was free of airway obstruction and feeding problems.
喉软化是引起新生儿吸气性喘鸣最常见的喉部异常。该病通常为自限性，在两岁前自行缓解。我们报告一例伴有喂养障碍和气道阻塞的严重喉软化病例，该病例需要手术治疗——声门上成形术。使用二氧化碳激光和喷射通气切开缩短的杓会厌襞。患者术后在医院观察一周后出院。治疗四周后，患者气道阻塞和喂养问题均消失。
