  Some cases of respiratory disorder in infants may be caused by tumors in the throat. We report on the case of an infant with a respiratory disorder that had neurofibroma in the left parapharyngeal space. His first symptom was snoring, and after one month he had developed fever and inspiratory stridor. A tumor in the left parapharyngeal space was detected by enhanced MRI and CT. We were able to excise the tumor through the mouth. This case was diagnosed as isolated neurofibroma, but cautious follow-up is necessary because of the possibility of pathological changes leading the infant's condition to fulfill the diagnostic criteria of neurofibromatosis type 1.
