description The following chapter is a review of the most common viral and bacterial etiologies of pediatric laryngeal infections. The chapter reviews the diagnostic approach to laryngeal infections, focusing on key points of the history and physical exam, including concerning signs and symptoms suggestive of airway distress. Viral and bacterial laryngitis, croup, epiglottis, recurrent respiratory papillomatosis, as well as some less common causes of bacterial infections are discussed in detail with each etiology’s epidemiology, clinical features, associated diagnostic evaluation, and management reviewed.
