Fraser syndrome with laryngeal webs: report of two cases and a review of the literature Sep 4th 2015, 01:25, by Farzad Izadi, Aslan Ahmadi, Hosna Zobairy, Sepideh Bakhti, Hengameh Hirbod, Mahdi Safdarian Fraser syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by cryptophthalmos, syndactyly and laryngeal atresia. Although laryngeal webs occur uncommonly, they are the main cause of death in the first week of life in these patients. In this paper, we report two cases of Fraser syndrome with laryngeal webs. One of them was a twelve-year-old girl, primarily diagnosed with a supraglottic laryngeal web. In the course of treatment, a second web was also identified at the level of vocal cords, which is to our knowledge the first case of Fraser syndrome with two laryngeal webs in different levels.
