Vocal cord palsy may result from varied causes. However, cord palsy resulting from a brain-stem cavernoma has never been reported. We report a patient with vocal cord palsy in a 30-year-old male resulting from the brain-stem lesion. The patient became symptomatic each time the lesion bled and improved gradually when the bleeding resolved. Repeated insults on the brain-stem produced permanent cord palsy. Although a rare presentation, brain-stem cavernoma may be considered in the aetiology of cord palsy.
声带麻痹可能由多种原因引起。然而，脑干海绵状血管瘤导致的声带麻痹从未有过报道。我们报告一名30岁男性患者，其声带麻痹由脑干病变引起。每次病变出血时患者出现症状，出血消退后症状逐渐改善。脑干反复受损害导致永久性声带麻痹。尽管表现罕见，但在声带麻痹的病因中可能应考虑脑干海绵状血管瘤。
