Cervical osteophytes and other hypertrophic changes of the cervical spine may lead to dysphagia, odynophagia, otalgia, and sensation of a foreign body in the throat when they protrude from the anterior edge of the cervical vertebrae to the pharynx or upper esophagus. A fiftythree- year-old male patient presented with a complaint of dysphagia. Physical examination showed no abnormality. Barium esophagography revealed osteophytic spurs in the anterior aspect of C4- 5 vertebrae, in close approximation to the inlet of esophagus, obstructing the esophagus passage by external compression. Antiinflammatory therapy administered for three weeks did not provide relief of the patient’s complaint. Surgical treatment recommended was refused by the patient.
