Progressive stridor resulting from bilateral vocal cord paralysis and hypoventilation was evident. The authors suggest that for infants or children who exhibit vocal cord paralysis, mitochondrial disorders, such as Leigh disease, should be considered.[SDGs]SDG3airway obstruction; article; basal ganglion; case report; child; developmental disorder; encephalomyopathy; human; Leigh disease; lung alveolus hypoventilation; male; nerve degeneration; neuroradiology; priority journal; proton nuclear magnetic resonance; provocation test; spasticity; vocal cord paralysisjournal article10.1016/S0887-8994(98)00137-4102079332-s2.0-0032920467
