    Infantile subglottic hemangiomas often cause respiratory distress in infants under six months. Treatment varies, but tracheotomy for severe cases and carbon dioxide laser vaporization for smaller lesions offer effective outcomes.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Otolaryngology
    • Vascular Anomalies

    Background:

    • Infantile subglottic hemangiomas (ISh) are rare benign tumors.
    • They commonly present with airway obstruction in infants.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review reported cases of ISh.
    • To present institutional experience with ISh.
    • To compare treatment modalities for ISh.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of 323 reported cases (1913-1985).
    • Analysis of 10 additional cases from Johns Hopkins Hospital.
    • Comparison of treatment outcomes.

    Main Results:

    • Most patients presented before 6 months with inspiratory stridor.
    • A 2:1 female to male ratio was observed.

  • Effective treatments included corticosteroids, tracheotomy, and CO2 laser.

    • Conclusions:

    • Tracheotomy is recommended for severe airway obstruction.
    • CO2 laser vaporization is effective for smaller lesions with appropriate ICU care.
    • Corticosteroids can be used as a primary or adjunctive therapy.
