Our experience with the treatment of 23 cases of subglottic haemangioma in children at the Hospital for Sick Children is presented. Different modalities of treatment are mentioned, with particular emphasis on excision with laryngo-tracheoplasty and the use of CO2 surgical laser. In a self-limiting lesion, our present policy is to use the CO2 laser to accelerate the rate of regression while minimizing morbidity and mortality.
