INTRODUCTION: Laryngotracheobronchitis is a rare, but in severe cases may lead to laryngeal edema progressing to complete closure of the subglottis within a few hours, without prompt treatment.
CASE PRESENTATION: We present the case of acute airway obstruction caused by laryngotracheobronchitis in a 6-year-old boy, initially misdiagnosed and treated as foreign body aspiration. The treatment of airway obstruction in the child was managed with algorithm used in our institution.
CONCLUSION: The aims of management of acute airway obstructions are firstly, to maintain and secure the airway and than, to establish a diagnosis. Institutions should have algorithms to manage children with acute airway obstruction.
