Abstract：
:During a 22-month period, 5 children, 6-13 months of age, presented with an acute obstructive upper airway infection which resembled both croup and epiglottitis. All 5 failed to respond to standard treatment for croup, including aerosolized racemic epinephrine. In all patients, direct laryngoscopy revealed minimal or no change in the epiglottis and aryepiglottic folds but severe subglottic swelling and copious purulent tracheal secretions. Gram stains of the purulent secretions revealed many polymorphonuclear leukocytes with gram-positive cocci (3 patients) and small gram-negative rods (2 patients). Cultures subsequently confirmed the presence of S. Aureus and H. Influenzae. Initial therapy for all patients included endotracheal intubation, antibiotic therapy for both S. Aureus and H. Influenzae and frequent tracheal suctioning. Hospitalization varied from one to 3 weeks. We reported findings in these patients because: the initial diagnosis was unclear due to confusion caused by clinical features common to both croup and epiglottitis and bacterial tracheitis requires a prompt accurate diagnosis and aggressive antibiotic and airway management in order to prevent unnecessary morbidity and mortality.
