Laryngomalacia is the most frequent congenital laryngeal anomaly. Surgery is possible by means of cold knife, carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) laser, microdebrider and coblation, traditionally under microscopic view. We here describe the use of the 3D-4K exoscope assisted CO 2 laser supraglottoplasty in tubeless general anesthesia in spontaneous breathing in a 5 month-old patient with severe laryngomalacia.
