Is There a Chance of Normal Life in Severe Laryngeal web.

Laryngeal web is a rare cause of pediatric stridor and respiratory distress. The clinical presentation is variable and symptoms usually correlate with the severity of the airway obstruction. We describe the cases of three children unexpectedly diagnosed with laryngeal web after a severe episode of bronchiolitis and after thirteen and eleven years, respectively, of persistent symptoms despite asthma medications. Even if it is a rare cause of stridor and respiratory distress, congenital subglottic web could be a life threatening condition and clinicians should always consider it in the differential diagnosis of persistent noisy breathing, even in adolescents and young adults.
