ABSTRACT

A case of nasopharyngeal glial heterotopia with persistent craniopharyngeal canal is being reported. These lesions though rare should be considered in the differential diagnosis of neonates who present with nasal obstruction. Careful radiological evaluation for a persistent craniopharyngeal canal and differentiating the nasopharyngeal mass from brain tissue is of paramount importance.

ABSTRACT

To emphasize the need for high clinical suspicion in the diagnosis of Laryngeal cleft in paediatric population, to catalogue the pattern of presentation, time to treatment and the evolution of surgical techniques for Laryngeal cleft repair at our center. A retrospective review of laryngeal cleft cases which presented over a period of 8 years (May 2012-May 2020), from a tertiary care center, was done. Data includes-patient demographics, preliminary investigations, diagnostic methods, type of cleft, surgical steps and post-operative follow up. Extensive literature search was done and we could not find similar studies from South East Asia and the Indian subcontinents. Of the 10 patients 7 were managed surgically and 3 conservatively. There was an equal distribution of type 1 (n = 5) and 2 (n = 5) clefts. 80% cases were males and 9 out of 10 patients had associated congenital anomalies. 80% cases had symptom resolution (75% were managed surgically and 25% managed medically). Surgical intervention should be based on the extent of anatomical defect and the functional impairment caused by cleft such as respiratory problems, persistence of feeding issues despite maximal medical management and feeding therapy. Early surgical management of type I and II clefts have satisfactory outcomes.
