Özet: Any site in the upper airway can get obstructed and cause noisy breathing as well as dyspnea. These include nasal causes such as choanal atresia or nasal stenosis; pharyngeal causes including lingual thyroid; laryngeal causes such as laryngomalacia; tracheobronchial causes such as tracheal stenosis; and subglottic stenosis. Subglottic Stenosis presents challenges to the anesthesiologist. Therefore, It is imperative to perform a detailed history, physical examination, and characterization of the extent and severity of stenosis. Rigid endoscopy is essential for the preoperative planning of any of the surgical procedures that can be used for correction. Choice of operation is dependent on the surgeon's comfort, postoperative capabilities, and severity of disease. Multi speciality approach along with ENT surgeon, Cardiothoracic surgeon, pulmonologist is key to efficient perioperative management of the patient. Thorough pre operative planning and having alternate methods for securing the airway are mandatory
