Khan YR 2011 UL http://smj.org.sa/content/32/1/80.abstract AB Degenerative changes in the spine can result in the formation of osteophytes on the anterior surface of the cervical spine. Depending on their site, osteophytes can bring on clinical manifestations such as dysphagia, hoarseness, and stridor. We discuss an interesting case of a young adult patient who presented with dysphagia along with neck discomfort, and on investigation was found to be suffering from diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis. Here, we briefly portray the presenting features, radiographic findings, and management options.
