Three Episodes of Postanesthesia Paradoxical Vocal Cord Motion Disorder in the Same Patient: A Case Report.
Postanesthesia paradoxical vocal cord motion disorder (PVCMD) is often benign. However, if not recognized, PVCMD can lead to unnecessary treatments. Our patient had 3 different surgeries over a period of 20 months. ⋯ The third episode of PVCMD occurred after a cervical fusion surgery. Prevertebral edema from surgery further compromised the airways. Our case demonstrates the challenges of identifying and managing perioperative PVCMD, especially when surgical complications confound the airway management.
