Abstract
A case of cervical osteophytes producing the sensation of a ‘lump in the throat’ is described. This symptom was relieved by excision of the offending osteophytes. Emphasis is placed on the need for surgical correction before progression of degenerative disease makes the procedure technically impossible. Several points concerning the operative and postoperative management are made.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
