title: Reversal of vocal cord palsy by tamoxifen.
abstract: Advanced breast carcinoma responds to tamoxifen in more than 30% of cases (Mouridsen et al., 1978). It is widely used for hormonal treatment in women suffering from breast carcinoma, particularly if they are post-menopausal (Carter, Bakowski and Hellmann, 1981).
