Abstract
Acute infectious croup can be divided into three etiologic categories; namely, diphtheritic croup, H. influenzae type B croup, and so-called virus croup. The clinical divisions of this disease, i.e., laryngitis, laryngotracheitis, and laryngotracheopneumonitis, are of prognostic value, but have no etiologic significance.
