An 83-year-old man presented with a history of hoarseness, neck swelling and shortness of breath. There was no history of dysphagia, voice strain or neck pain. Physical examination revealed a slight smooth fullness of the right neck, but no nodularity to suggest cervical lymphadenopathy. Fibre-optic endoscopy revealed right vocal cord immobility.
