This paper summarized Professor WANG Shouchuan's clinical experience in pattern identification and treatment of children's upper airway cough syndrome （UACS）. It is believed that the disease location of children's UACS lies in the nose and pharynx， with the lung as the main involved organ. It is advocated to classify UACS into three types including allergic rhinitis type， sinusitis type， and chronic tonsillitis type， and syndrome differentiation is combined for treatment.
