Abstract
A case of 61-year-old man with a 2-year history of progressive difficulty in swallowing solid foods is presented. CT-scan and barium swallow test demonstrated an anterior osteophyte at C6. Resection of the osteophyte resolved the dysphagia. The rarity in the neurosurgical literature, the pathogenesis and the management of this condition are discussed.Entities:
