 A 57-year-old woman was suffering from sleep apnea due to bilateral vocal cord abductor paralysis(VCAP)which was caused by multiple system atrophy(MSA). There were no symptoms except for minor dysarthria and weakness of the left arm in the early stage,but inspiratory strider with high-pitched tone appeared in the advanced stage. The recording of snoring sound was useful in the diagnosis of VCAP. Nasal CPAP was effective in the management of her sleep apnea. As the diagnosis of VCAP is difficult while awake,the recording of snoring sound was thought to be a good screening test for the diagnosis of VCAP in MSA.
