摘要
Cardiac, respiratory, and neurological problems may occur after a bee sting. A 58-year-old male patient was admitted to the ear, nose, and throat polyclinic with sudden onset of hoarseness and difficulty in swallowing after a wasp sting in the neck. He had no problems such as shortness of breath or palpitations. The right vocal cord was paralytic in the flexible laryngoscopic examination. There was saliva accumulation in the piriform sinus. The patient was given medical treatment. Symptoms decreased on the 10th day of treatment. In the follow-ups performed 1 month later, it was observed that the laryngeal pathology had improved.
