    Journal: Acta Otorrinolaringol Esp; 1997 Mar; 48(2):161-3. PubMed ID: 9198469.
    Abstract:
    Swallowing disorders can be caused by cervical spine diseases, such as diffuse skeletal hyperostosis (DISH). This entity is diagnosed as a cause of dysphagia only after excluding all other possible causes. We report a case in which dysphagia was the initial symptom of DISH. The most important clinical and diagnostic aspects of the disease are discussed.
