==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
Dysphagia is defined as "difficulty swallowing." It is a sensation that suggests difficulty in the passage of [[Solid|solids]] or [[Liquid|liquids]] from the [[mouth]] to the [[stomach]]. According to the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) which is endorsed by the [[World Health Organization|WHO]], dysphagia is a [[symptom]] rather than a [[disease]]. Dysphagia can result from propulsive failure, motility disorders, structural disorders, [[Intrinsic factor|intrinsic]] or extrinsic compression of the [[oropharynx]] or [[esophagus]]. Dysphagia is distinguished from similar symptoms including [[odynophagia]], which is defined as painful [[swallowing]], and [[Globus pharyngis|globus]], which is the sensation of a lump in the throat. The endoscopy for esophageal dysphagia should be performed when the patient presented with symptoms of difficulty [[swallowing]], painful [[swallowing]], and [[Aspiration (medicine)|aspiration]]. This is the standard test performed when the patient has a risk of developing [[pneumonia]] and diagnosing [[swallowing]] difficulties. Videofluoroscopic swallowing study is performed for [[Pharynx|oropharyngeal]] dysphagia. It provides information about delay in initiation of pharyngeal [[swallowing]], [[Nasopharynx|nasopharyngeal]] regurgitation, residue of ingested food within the [[Pharynx|pharyngeal]] cavity after [[swallowing]], and [[Aspiration (medicine)|aspiration]] of ingested food. The cornerstone of any dysphagia evaluation is a detailed history and a thorough review of symptoms that can differentiate [[esophageal]] from [[Pharynx|oropharyngeal]] dysphagia and help predict the specific etiology of dysphagia with an accuracy of approximately 80% confirmed by specific testing. How a patient describes his or her difficulty and its timing, associated symptoms, and other characterizations may specifically denote the anatomic level of [[swallowing]] dysfunction. | Dysphagia is defined as "difficulty swallowing."

Overview
Dysphagia is defined as "difficulty swallowing." It is a sensation that suggests difficulty in the passage of solids or liquids from the mouth to the stomach. According to the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) which is endorsed by the WHO, dysphagia is a symptom rather than a disease. Dysphagia can result from propulsive failure, motility disorders, structural disorders, intrinsic or extrinsic compression of the oropharynx or esophagus. Dysphagia is distinguished from similar symptoms including odynophagia, which is defined as painful swallowing, and globus, which is the sensation of a lump in the throat. The endoscopy for esophageal dysphagia should be performed when the patient presented with symptoms of difficulty swallowing, painful swallowing, and aspiration. This is the standard test performed when the patient has a risk of developing pneumonia and diagnosing swallowing difficulties. Videofluoroscopic swallowing study is performed for oropharyngeal dysphagia. It provides information about delay in initiation of pharyngeal swallowing, nasopharyngeal regurgitation, residue of ingested food within the pharyngeal cavity after swallowing, and aspiration of ingested food. The cornerstone of any dysphagia evaluation is a detailed history and a thorough review of symptoms that can differentiate esophageal from oropharyngeal dysphagia and help predict the specific etiology of dysphagia with an accuracy of approximately 80% confirmed by specific testing. How a patient describes his or her difficulty and its timing, associated symptoms, and other characterizations may specifically denote the anatomic level of swallowing dysfunction.
Causes
Life Threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes include conditions that may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. There are no known life-threatening causes of dysphagia.
Common Causes
Depending upon the type of dysphagia, the causes can be categorized into two subsections:[1][2][3][4][5][6]
Common Causes of Oropharyngeal Dysphagia
| Common causes of oropharyngeal dysphagia | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Neuromuscular disorders | Mechanical and obstructive causes | Medication side effects | Others |
|
Medications that reduce salivary flow:
|
||
Common Causes of Esophageal Dysphagia
The common causes of esophageal dysphagia can be divided into four categories.[7][8][9][10][11]
| Structural (Mechanical) disorders | Motor disorders | Esophageal tumors | Systemic diseases | Miscellaneous | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Intrinsic compression | Extrinsic Compression | Primary | Secondary | |||||
Mucosal rings and webs
|
Strictures: | Vascular compression:
|
|
|
|
| ||
Less Common Causes
Less common causes of dysphagia include:
- Scleredema adultorum[12][13]
- Post chemotherapy and radiation therapy[14]
- Descending thoracic aorta aneurysm[15]
- Hypertrophy of cricopharyngeal muscles[16]

Do's
- Evaluate for drugs causing decreased salivary flow or those causing esophageal mucosal injury.
- Treat underlying disorders first.
Don'ts
- Don't perform endoscopy in patients with a history of prior radiation or caustic injury, history of surgery for laryngeal or esophageal cancer, complex stricture or risk of perforation.
