AB  - Nasogastric tube syndrome (NTS) is characterized by acute upper airway obstruction due to bilateral vocal cord paralysis.Although NTS is a rare cause of vocal cord paralysis, it has the potential of causing serious morbidities even mortality. We here withpresent a case of concurrent NTS and cerebrovascular disease patient. 73 year-old male was admitted to our university hospitalemergency department with acute respiratory distress and stridor days after his cholecystectomy operation and laryngoscopy showedbilateral vocal cord paralysis. The patient was admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) and urgent tracheotomy was performed. On theday after his discharge from the hospital, his vocal cord movements fully recovered state. Nasogastric tube syndrome can beconsidered in patient who complains because of acute upper airway obstruction with nasogastric tube inserted. Thinking NTS earlymay be reducing the complication rate.
