Laryngomalacia is the most common cause of inspiratory stridor and varying degrees of airway obstruction in infants but rarely occurs in children or adults. However, acquired airway obstruction would be developed due to the presence of redundant mucosa in the aryepjglottic folds similar to that seen in congenital laryngomalacia after central nervous system damage. To this condition, the term“Neurasthenic Laryngomalacia”is applied. We have recently experienced a case of neurasthenic larygomalacia, which has been managed by laser aryepiglottoplasty with good result. We report management and outcome of this patient with a review of the literatures.
