  All congenital glottic webs should be tested by FISH. CT Neck with thin slices should be considered before open airway intervention to assess craniocaudal extension. [medicine.uiowa.edu]

  However, genetic testing using the FISH method did not confirm this diagnosis in our patient. Additionally, we considered the possibility of CHARGE syndrome or VACTERL/VATER. [karger.com]

  This case and prior reports suggest that the novel approach may be effective in the treatment of laryngeal webs. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  The findings suggest that congenital glottic webs require accurate endoscopic diagnosis and open airway reconstruction for definitive treatment. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. [ohsu.pure.elsevier.com]

  Some authors cite DiGeorge being associated with significant post operative edema suggesting utility of a double-stage procedure (Kuo 2020) Recurrence rate is high >70% (Lawlor 2020) INTERVENTIONS Tracheostomy Especially in smaller infants, early tracheostomy [medicine.uiowa.edu]

  The flow-volume loops showed some flattening of the inspiratory and expiratory limbs, suggestive of upper airway obstruction. [pulmonarychronicles.com]

The application of these minimally invasive endoscopic techniques was successful, hence it may be an effective alternative treatment option for laryngeal webs. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Traditionally, the treatment of choice for laryngeal web is laryngofissure and placement of a stent or keel. [unboundmedicine.com]
