AB This  chapter  reviews  infectious  and  noninfectious  conditions  that  can  obstruct  the  upper  airway.  These  disorders  must  be  recognized  quickly  because  early  airway  management  may  be  lifesaving.  Neck  trauma  is  discussed  in  Chapter  260,  “Trauma  to  the  Neck,”  and  angioedema  is  discussed  in  Chapter  14,  “Allergy  and  Anaphylaxis.”  Management  of  upper  airway  and  neck  infections  in  children  are  discussed  in  Chapter  124,  “Mouth  and  Throat  Disorders  in  Infants  and  Children,”  and  Chapter  126,  “Stridor  and  Drooling  in  Infants  and  Children.”
