Congenital laryngeal atresia is a rare cause of airway obstruction that is almost always lethal within short period of time after birth unless diagnosed prenatally and emergency tracheostomy was performed. Other life-threatening anomalies such as tracheoesophageal fistula, gastrointestinal or urinary anomalies, and VATER syndrome are often associated with laryngeal atresia. Recently, we experienced a case of congenital laryngeal atresia with diaphragmatic hernia, ear and skull anomalies, not diagnosed prenatally, died of asphyxia due to intubation failure, and confirmed by autopsy. We report this case with a brief review of the literatures.
