Abstract
<p>A man in his 80s developed convulsive seizures and was intubated for 6 days in the emergency department of our hospital. After extubation, the patient developed dyspnea with inspiratory stridor and underwent tracheostomy. The patient was referred to our department for a further examination and treatment. Laryngeal endoscopy revealed bilateral vocal fold movement disorders, and laryngeal electromyography revealed bilateral vocal fold movement immobility. Posterior glottal stenosis was suspected, and the patient underwent surgery. Thirty days after surgery, he underwent decannulation and was found to have maintained good speech. We believe that aggressive surgical treatment should be performed in elderly patients.</p>
