Paradoxical vocal fold movements is a complex and heterogenic syndrome. It is a functional disorder manifesting itself as a pathological adduction of vocal folds in the inspiratory and/ or expiratory phase, resulting in airway obstruction and dyspnoea. This pathology may appear as an extreme form of psychosomatization involving otolaryngological organs, leading to dyspnoea and stridor. The paper presents the case of a young woman who was admitted to hospital due to dyspnoea, stridor and hoarseness. The paper presents the clinical picture, diagnostics and therapeutic procedures which were used.
