The author reports a rare case of left recurrent nerve paralysis in an infant aged 1 year and 10 months and male. He refers to cardiac diseases as its chief causes. The main cause is the compression of the nerve by the aorta and left pulmonary artery. Concerning other etiologic cardiac diseases he further states that in the stenosis of the mitral valves or their insufficiency, the dilatation of the 2nd cardiac arch is remarkable in X-ray findings.
