ABSTRACT

A case of isolated velopalatine paralysis in an 8-year-old boy is presented. The symptoms were sudden-onset of nasal speech, regurgitation of liquids into the nose and dysphagia. Brain MRI and cerebrospinal fluid examination were normal. Infectious serologies disclosed an antibody arrangement towards parvovirus B19 that was typical of recent infection. In the absence of other positive data, the possibility of a correlation between the tenth nerve palsy and parvovirus infection is discussed.


Apresentamos um caso de paralisia velopalatina isolada, num menino de 8 anos, que se manifestou por voz nasalada, regurgitação de líquidos pelo nariz e disfagia, de início súbito. A ressonância magnética encefálica e o estudo do líquido cefalo-raquidiano foram normais. O perfil serológico dos anticorpos anti-parvovírus B19 era típico de infecção recente. Na ausência de outros dados positivos, discute-se a possibilidade de uma correlação entre a parésia do X nervo e a infecção por parvovírus.
