 Laryngeal cyst is uncommon disease in infants, however it rarely causes dyspnea and dysphagia and lead to mortality. The proper management of the infant laryngeal cyst is thus important. A 2-month-old female infant visited our clinic with stridor and poor feeding. Flexible laryngoscopy revealed laryngomalacia and a small cyst in the vallecula. Although we had waited laryngomalacia to improve spontaneously, the cyst grew up rapidly and her larynx collapsed severely. We therefore resected the cyst under general anesthesia and the symptoms disappeared immediately. We discuss the management of infant laryngeal cyst.
