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.Keywords
