RESUMO
Introduction: Laryngeal clefts (LC) are upper respiratory malformations predominately found in the posterior laryngeal wall. The frequency is 1:10,000, more frequently affect males, and can be syndromic features. There is no report of a transfixing anterior laryngeal cleft. Case report: This diabetic mother at full-term pregnancy delivered a stillborn macrosomic 4780 g dysmorphic stillborn male with left renal agenesis, aortic coarctation, and anterior laryngeal cleft. Conclusion: Anterior laryngeal clefts can occur, and in this case, occurred in association with renal agenesis and maternal diabetes.

Major congenital malformations affecting the larynx and trachea are laryngomalacia, vocal cord paralysis, subglottic hemangioma, congenital laryngeal web, laryngotracheal cleft, congenital tracheal stenoses, tracheal and bronchomalacia. The most frequent acquired diseases are stenotic lesions, mainly subglottic stenosis. In this chapter the main anomalies affecting the airway of children and adolescents are described, emphasizing the importance of early and accurate diagnosis as well as defining the modern treatment options.
Las principales malformaciones congénitas que afectan la laringe y tráquea son la laringomalacia, parálisis de cuerdas vocales, hemangioma subglótico, web laríngeo, hendidura laringotraqueal, estenosis traqueal congénita, traqueo y broncomalacia. Las lesiones adquiridas que con mayor frecuencia debemos diagnosticar y tratar son las lesiones post intubación, principalmente la estenosis subglótica.
