M D Schloss, J A Gold, J K Rosales, J D Baxter.   

Abstract

Two hundred and sixty-one cases of acute epiglottitis treated at the Montreal Children's Hospital between 1951 and 1980 are reviewed. Clinical features of the disease are described. Treatment protocol at a major children's hospital is presented. Statistics related to age, season and sex are analyzed. The authors compare nasotracheal intubation and tracheostomy as primary treatment. Bacteriology and antibiotic treatment are updated.
