Gastroesophageal reflux in infants can lead to serious upper airway inflammation, specifically laryngitis. Effective antireflux treatment successfully resolved the infant's condition, highlighting the link between reflux and pediatric respiratory issues.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Otolaryngology
  • Gastroenterology
  • Neonatal Medicine

Background:

  • Infantile upper airway obstruction presents diagnostic challenges.
  • Stenosing granulating laryngitis is a rare but severe condition in infants.
  • Gastroesophageal reflux is a common issue in neonates.

Observation:

  • A 2-month-old infant exhibited aphonia and inspiratory stridor.
  • Diagnostic evaluation revealed stenosing granulating laryngitis.
  • 24-hour pH monitoring confirmed pathological gastroesophageal reflux.

Findings:

  • Antireflux therapy, including Cisapride, sodium alginate, and upright positioning, was initiated.
  • The infant experienced complete resolution of laryngitis following treatment.

  • This case demonstrates a direct correlation between elevated gastroesophageal reflux and chronic laryngeal inflammation in infants.

    • Implications:

    • Elevated gastroesophageal reflux is a significant etiological factor in pediatric upper respiratory tract inflammatory diseases.
    • Early identification and management of gastroesophageal reflux are crucial for treating laryngeal conditions in infants.
    • This case underscores the importance of considering reflux in the differential diagnosis of neonatal stridor and aphonia.
