BACKGROUND
Chylothorax is a rare complication of surgical neck dissection. This is the first reported pediatric case of bilateral chylothorax following cervical surgery and the first to occur after tracheoplasty. Chylothorax can lead to significant complications, including hypoxemia and shock, and
Nine cases of bilateral choanal atresia are reported. The association with other malformations and deafness is evaluated. The choanal atresia is associated with multiple malformation in two cases and bilateral deafness in 5 cases. Before discussing surgery, a complete evaluation has to be performed,
Because neonates are obligate nasal breathers, neonatal nasal obstruction may have serious consequences. Prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment are essential to avoid severe hypoxia. Anterior inlet, piriform aperture stenosis is an extremely rare cause of neonatal nasal airway obstruction and
The association between catastrophic airway events and developmental delay was examined in patients with CHARGE (coloboma, heart disease, atresia choanae, retarded growth and/or development, genital hypoplasia, and ear anomalies and/or deafness) association. A retrospective chart analysis was
OBJECTIVE
The Marshall-Smith Syndrome is a rare disease characterized by facial dysmorphism, accelerated osseous maturation, retarded neuropsychomotor development, and abnormalities of the airways. Patients with this syndrome have a high risk of developing anesthetic complications, especially
Neonates are obligate nasal breathers, and any form of neonatal nasal obstruction may have serious consequences. Prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment are essential to avoid severe hypoxia. Congenital bony nasal stenosis (CBNS) is an extremely rare cause of neonatal nasal airway obstruction and
The causes of obstruction to airflow in the pediatric upper airway include craniofacial disorders, subglottic stenosis, choanal atresia, syndromes associated with neuromuscular weakness, and the most common, hypertrophy of the tonsils and adenoids. Abnormal breathing can adversely affect
Because neonates are obligate nose breathers, neonatal nasal obstruction may have serious consequences. Prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment are essential to avoid severe hypoxia. The most common cause of neonatal nasal obstruction is rhinitis. However, it is essential to first rule out
