The disease is so rare that few are familiar with it. The treatment is usually by cryotherapy but the area in this patient (upper trachea/laryngeal) is so narrow that great expertise is required to avoid damaging healthy tissue.This patient currently is tracheotomized but requires surgery to return to normal quality of life. BTW it too 6 years to reach a diagnosis.
