description A laryngeal cleft is a rare anatomical deformity which is increasingly treated with injection laryngoplasty.

In this case, we describe how injection laryngoplasty is performed safely on an 8-week-old child, and we illustrate its added value for the diagnostic process and for temporary symptom relief.
