This material is not intended to be a diagnostic or medical advice. The specialty of pediatric airway surgery is demanding and calls for highly skilled and well-organized airway teams and surgeons. The following surgical procedures are used for pediatric airway surgery: aortopexy, slide tracheoplasty, cricotracheal resection, tracheal resection, LTR, and extended pCTR. Sometimes a surgical method is required, like in the case of "Can't intubate, Can't ventilate" emergencies. This covers cricothyroidotomy via needle or surgery, as well as tracheostomy. During surgery, general anesthesia is used to numb the mouth and neck. Children's upper airway diseases are extremely frequent and sometimes fatal. A croupy cough may indicate aspiration of a foreign body, acute epiglottitis, or acute laryngotracheobronchitis (croup).
