Localized laryngeal coccidioidomycosis has been rarely reported and usually is associated with disseminated disease. This paper has described localized subglottic coccidioidomycosis in a 13-month old white boy who presented with persistent stridor. Medical management including intravenous amphotericin B resulted in complete eradication of the subglottic lesion.
