Congenital Laryngeal Cyst as a Rare Cause of Stridor in Infants: Two Case Reports.

Congenital laryngeal cysts are a rare cause of stridor in infants. These cysts may have serious clinical implications if not promptly recognized. A small laryngeal cyst may remain asymptomatic. However, if large, it can block the laryngeal inlet leading to acute airway obstruction, which is potentially life-threatening. In pediatric patients presenting with respiratory distress, prompt diagnosis and surgical management are crucial to avoid infant morbidity and mortality. We describe two cases of laryngeal vallecular cysts in infants and their management in our clinical practice.
