ABSTRACT
Congenital stridor is one of the rare presentations of respiratory distress at birth. The commonest cause of congenital stridor is laryngomalacia, which accounts for 60% of the causes. The other common causes are congenital subglottic stenosis and vocal cord palsy (VCP). VCP is usually unilateral and most often linked with birth trauma, and is temporary. Bilateral palsy can be associated with other congenital anomalies. The current report describes a case of congenital bilateral VCP, not related to birth trauma and severe enough to require tracheostomy.
