Abstract
Unilateral vocal cord palsy can be a benign condition with a reasonable chance of spontaneous recovery. Analysis of 21 selected patients has shown that 5 recovered completely and another 5 improved within months of the onset. The remaining 11 patients developed no major disease during the subsequent one to eight years.Keywords
