Abstract: | Choanal atresia may result from a posterior or anterior obstruction of the airway. Treatment is predicated on an accurate identification of the underlying pathological condition by means of physical examination, fluoroscopy, and computed tomographic scan. Expeditious surgical management after appropriate diagnosis appears to result in effective relief of the obstruction. |
