VIDEOFLUOROSCOPIC SWALLOWING STUDY: esophageal alterations in patients with dysphagia

Abstract: -Context -Videofluoroscopic swallowing study is a dynamic exam and allows the evaluation of the complete swallowing process. However, most published studies have only reported alterations in the oropharynx and pharyngoesophageal transition, leaving the analysis of the esophagus as a secondary goal. Objectives -The goal of this study was to investigate the prevalence of alterations in the esophageal phase thorough videofluoroscopic swallowing study in patients with dysphagia. Methods -Consecutive patients with … Show more

“…OD begins with minor symptoms, such as a strange sensation during swallowing mimicking globus sensation (5,6). One recent study showed that abnormalities in only the esophageal phase were detected in patients with dysphagia without pre-established etiological damage (16). In this study, the patients with mild symptom of OD; possibly OD would begin with dysfunction of the CE wall opening, although further studies will be necessary to confirm this.…”
