Rev Med Liege 2024, 79(2),65-67Abstract : Subglottic haemangioma can cause stridor in young children, and sometimes be life-threatening. Larynx ultrasound is a useful, non-irradiating screening test, but the diagnosis must be confirmed by bronchial fibroscopy and injected chest CT scan. Nowadays propranolol is the first-line treatment. If treated early, the prognosis is excellent.
