Abstract
A 1-month-old girl of left recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis due to total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (Ortner's syndrome) has been reported with review of relevent literatures. She was admitted because of weak crying. After extensive examinations, she was diagnosed as TAPVC type Ia.
Pulmonary artery hypertention is proposed as a cause of the left recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis
