Yutma güçlüğünün nadir bir nedeni: Anevrizmatik olmayan disfajia aortika

Disfajia aortika, torasik aortanın özefagusa dıştan basısından kaynaklanan yutma güçlüğünün nadir bir nedenidir. Tanı için altın standart bir yöntem yoktur. Disfajinin ayırıcı tanısında genellikle göz ardı edilir. Bu yazımızda yutma güçlüğü ile başvuran 54 yaşındaki erkek hastada aort anevrizması bulunmaksızın torasik aortanın neden olduğu özofagus basısı sunulmuştur

A rare cause of dysphagia: Non aneurysmatıc dysphagia aortica

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.
