Tratamento de disfagia por Osteofitectomia cervical por via anterior
Keywords:
osteófito; osteofitose vertebral; disfagia.Abstract
Case report of a 58-year-old man who was attending to our hospital with Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis complicated with a severe cervical osteofit compressing the esophagus. Initially, the patient was complaining about dysphagia. Treated conservatively with Prednisone. However, the symptoms worsened and he started to choke even with a liquid diet. Osteofit removal was performed. Postoperatively, dysphagia symptoms dramatically improved. A postoperative radiograph performed one week post-operatively showed a reduction in the size of the osteofit, providing a relief in the cervical structures. Fifteen months after surgery, no recurrence of osteofit was observed, and the patient had no symptoms or disturbance of activities of daily living.
