Audible stridor can arise from numerous disease processes. In the vast majority of presentations it occurs sporadically and on an individual basis. Our cohort is especially unusual because of the sheer number of patients. Our presentation of a case of mass psychogenic illness as the cause of vocal cord dysfunction with additional findings of laryngomalacia within a group of adolescent girls is the first in the English-language literature. The key to the diagnosis is recognition of the disorder and susceptible individuals by using a thorough physical examination with emphasis on the laryngoscopic and videostroboscopic findings. The systematic approach, undertaken by a team including an otolaryngologist, an allergist, a speech pathologist, and an epidemiologist, proved to be effective in the management of this complex disorder and highly unusual situation.
