Chronic dysphagia caused by Laryngovertebral Synostosis after anterior fusion for cervical spine trauma: A case report

Anterior cervical spine surgery is often associated with postoperative dysphagia, but chronic dysphagia caused by laryngo-vertebral synostosis is extremely rare. We report a case of chronic dysphagia caused by synostosis between the cricoid cartilage and cervical spine after anterior surgery for cervical spine trauma.
