A.R. RAMACHANDRA REDDY B.SC., M.B.B.S., C.R.C.P.(C)1

1 Department of Anaesthesia, Children's Hospital, Vancouver, B.C.

A plexiform neuroma of the left ary-epiglottic fold and arytenoids caused respiratory obstruction during induction of anaesthesia in an 18-month-old child. The tumour was responsible for frequent attacks of croup, failure to grow and anatomical deformity of the chest. The tumour was diagnosed during an attempt to intubate for hydrocoelectomy and right ingunial hermia repair.
