A Rare Case of a 54-year-old Male with Vocal Cord Paralysis Secondary to Left Atrial Enlargement.

Ortner's syndrome, a rare condition characterized by hoarseness due to left recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy caused by cardiovascular structural compression, is typically associated with an enlarged left atrium secondary to conditions like mitral stenosis. However, recent studies propose additional causes, including compression between the dilated pulmonary artery and the aorta. We present a case of a 54-year-old male with Ortner's syndrome secondary to severe mitral regurgitation and pulmonary hypertension.
