26394

Dysphagia aortica is a rare etiological factor of dysphagia resulting from extrinsic compression of the esophagus by thoracic aorta. There is no gold standard diagnostic procedure for dysphagia aortica. Dysphagia aortica is usually escaped to attention in the differential diagnosis of dysphagia. Here, we reported compression of the esophagus by thoracic aorta in a 54 years-old male patient who complained from dysphagia.
