摘要
Objective: To describe a patient with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who presented with oropharyngeal dysphagia and pharyngo-oesophageal dysfunction. Patient: A 15-year-old male patient with Duchenne muscular dystrophy presented with oropharyngeal dysphagia. Abnormalities of oral and pharyngeal phases of deglutition were observed on videoradiography. Pharyngeal hypomotility and upper oesophageal sphincter dysfunction were the main manometric findings. Conclusion: To our knowledge, the presence of pharyngeal or upper oesophageal sphincter dysfunction has not been found previously in patients with progressive muscular dystrophy.
