Abstract:
:We present two cases of Ortner's syndrome, a syndrome with hoarseness caused by unilateral left recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy as a complication of cardiovascular diseases. In the first case, aneurysmatic dilatation of the aorta and in the second case a dilated pulmonary trunk was thought to be the cause.

杂志文章abstract::Left ventricular aneurysms are common in clinical practice. Although their underlying aetiology is generally clear by the clinical context, it can be hard to define the exact cause in some cases. We report a case of a patient in whom cardiac MRI provided important information about the differential diagnosis of a left...
