Question

What Are the Symptoms of Congenital Laryngeal Dysplasia in Infants?

Answer

Congenital laryngeal dysplasia in infants may cause inspiratory laryngeal stridor and difficulty breathing. If symptoms are not severe, the laryngeal cartilage typically develops normally as the child grows to 2-3 years old, and the symptoms naturally disappear. If symptoms are severe, then a tracheotomy may be required.
