Hoarseness -As a presenting feature of aortic arch aneurysm.

John Mathai1, U P Swapna.   

Abstract

Hoarseness due to left recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis (LRLN) caused by identifiable cardiovascular disease is described as Ortner's syndrome or Cardiovocal syndrome. This was first described by Ortner in 1897 to describe left recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy secondary to Mitral Stenosis. The common conditions which gave rise to Ortners' syndrome include mitral stenosis, mitral valve prolapse, aortic aneurysm, septal defect, following cardiothoracic surgery, high altitude pulmonary hypertension, ductal aneurysm, aortic dissection etc. Herewith we are presenting an unusual presentation of Aortic arch aneurysm.
