  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

 Acute epiglottitis is a serious and often fatal condition which must not be missed. The present study revealed that 104 patients with acute epiglottitis had been treated in 42 ENT clinics in Mie prefecture from July 1984 to June 1985. They were 66 males and 38 females, aged 13 to 82 years, though it has been described in European and American literature that the disease occurs mainly in children aged 2 to 7 years. Although a 38-year-old female patient with underlying connective tissue disease required tracheotomy, in the remaining 103 patients antibiotics were effective and both tracheotomy and endotracheal intubation could be avoided. There were no deaths in this series.
