    AbstractThe role of the pediatric laryngologist has changed. He now manages a greater range of clinical problems in the upper airways. Direct laryngoscopy under general anesthesia is fundamental for correct diagnosis and management in infants and children. It is a precise procedure utilizing a range of modern miniaturized instruments. Major technological improvements include quartz iodine and xenon light sources, flexible light carrying leads, fiberoptic rod lighting, special purpose laryngoscopes, rigid telescopes, versatile techniques of anesthesia, microlaryngeal surgery, laser surgery and reliable photographic documentation.
