We report a case of prolonged post-operative stridor in a full-term neonate who was operated for tracheoesophageal fistula. Initial evaluation including an endoscopy and contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan was normal. Repeat endoscopic evaluation under anesthesia revealed tight aryepiglottic folds. Aryepiglottic split was performed and stridor improved dramatically. Tight aryepiglottic folds should be kept in differential diagnosis in a case of postoperative stridor in an infant.
我们报告了一例足月儿行气管食管瘘手术后出现持续性术后喘鸣的病例。包括内镜检查和增强计算机断层扫描在内的初步评估均正常。在麻醉下进行的重复内镜评估显示杓会厌襞狭窄。进行了杓会厌裂开术,喘鸣症状显著改善。对于婴儿术后喘鸣的病例,应将杓会厌襞狭窄纳入鉴别诊断。
