Abstract

As the number of elderly in the population increases, decompensation of swallowing and airway protective mechanisms can create an increased health care burden. This article outlines the effect of aging on deglutitive function and esophageal and aerodigestive reflexes. Specific disorders in the elderly are discussed.
