College of Medicine, QU Health, Qatar University, Doha, Qatar.
Background: Subglottic stenosis is a significant clinical challenge in pediatric anesthesia, often necessitating interventions that can lead to various postoperative complications. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of prophylactic continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) application on recovery time and airway complications in pediatric patients with subglottic stenosis undergoing balloon dilatation.
Methods: A prospective, double-blinded, parallel-group, randomized controlled study was conducted at Health Sciences University Ümraniye Training and Research Hospital on pediatric patients with subglottic stenosis, aged from 0 to 12 years and who underwent elective balloon dilatation under general anesthesia.

Subglottic cysts and hemangiomas are rare but potentially life-threatening conditions in pediatric patients. Subglottic cysts are generally associated with premature infants with a history of prolonged endotracheal intubation, while subglottic hemangiomas are congenital vascular lesions that grow rapidly and are uncommon head and neck tumours in pediatric patients. Both conditions can present with generalised respiratory symptoms such as stridor.

Article Synopsis
- Supraglottoplasty (SGP) is a surgical procedure for infants with congenital laryngomalacia, used in about 10-15% of cases, and this study assesses post-surgery outcomes and readmission rates.
- A retrospective review of patients undergoing SGP from 2012 to May 2022 categorized them by length of stay—same day, overnight, or 2+ days—and analyzed various preoperative and postoperative factors.
- Results showed that most patients were observed overnight, with a low ICU admission rate and a safe outpatient procedure option for select patients, indicating SGP's overall safety and effectiveness.
