  • Title: Dysphagia due to cervical osteophytes: a controversial entity revisited.
    Author: Parker MD.
    Journal: Dysphagia; 1989; 3(3):157-60. PubMed ID: 2700954.
    Abstract:
    Although cervical osteophytes have been reported to cause dysphagia, most remain clinically silent. A case of osteophytic dysphagia is reported in which an unusually large osteophytic ridge caused marked deviation and narrowing of the cervical esophagus. The subject of osteophytic dysphagia is reviewed.
