Abstract : Bilateral vocal cord paralysis is the one of the common childhood laryngeal lesions. The treatment modalities include interim tracheostomy and, where needed, permanent irreversible procedures. We report a case of idiopathic bilateral vocal cord palsy in a child, which was managed effectively by the procedure of suture lateralization of the vocal cord. The procedure, its rarity and follow-up of our case is described.
