“…CNPS is diagnosed clinically by difficulty to pass a small catheter though the anterior nasal valve and confirmed with CT scan. A pyriform aperture width of less than 5.7 mm in a neonate is 88% sensitive in predicting surgical intervention [13] . Sublabial surgical correction of the CNPS with nasal stenting was very successful option [12] .…”

“…Milder cases respond to conservative treatment, as the stenosis improves with age [3, 4]. Conservative measures include nasal humidifiers, nasal decongestants, treatment of reflux, and an oral airway [4, 5]. Those who fail conservative airway management, indicated by continued respiratory difficulty and poor weight gain, may require interventions such as endotracheal intubation, feeding tubes, or more aggressive interventions such as surgery [6, 7].…”
