Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Otolaryngology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Neonatal Medicine

Background:

  • Congenital subglottic hemangiomas are rare but critical causes of stridor in infants.
  • These vascular lesions can rapidly enlarge, leading to life-threatening airway obstruction.
  • Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for favorable outcomes.

Observation:

  • Three distinct cases of congenital subglottic hemangiomas are presented.
  • Each case illustrates a different clinical presentation and management approach.
  • The variability in presentation underscores the need for tailored treatment strategies.

Findings:

  • Subglottic hemangiomas manifest with stridor, typically presenting in infancy.
  • Airway compromise is a significant risk as the lesions grow.
  • Successful management depends on accurate assessment and timely intervention.

Implications:

  • This review emphasizes the importance of recognizing congenital subglottic hemangiomas as a treatable cause of infantile stridor.
  • Diverse treatment options exist, requiring individualized clinical decision-making.
  • Prompt management can prevent fatal outcomes and improve infant health.
