Laryngomalacia Presenting as Recurrent Croup in an Infant

Laryngomalacia is a common disease of infancy which can present with atypical symptoms and at an atypical age, causing the diagnosis to often be overlooked. We report a case of a male patient who was diagnosed with laryngomalacia at the age of three months. The patient's inspiratory stridor resolved within a year, but he went on to develop atypical croup. The patient was later diagnosed with severe laryngomalacia which complicated his "croup-like" symptoms. He subsequently underwent supraglottoplasty with complete resolution of symptoms.
