Congenital laryngeal membrane is a rare malformation of the airways. The symptoms depend on the degree of obstruction that triggers in these pathways. It must be taken into consideration in the differential diagnosis of the newborn respiratory distress. The treatment depends on the degree of airway obstruction.
