Abstract:
Meige's Syndrome is a combination of blepharospasm and oromandibular dystonia (cranial dystonia) that can affect the pharyngeal and respiratory musculature. We are reporting a case of a 61 year-woman with this diagnosis who presented a laryngeal stenosis due to sinequia on posterior commissure. The symptoms were an association of hoarseness and dyspnea with a clear movement in all pharyngo-laryngeal structures because of her illness. She was operated by Laser surgery with section of such sinequia and going on treatment in Neurology.
