Palato-pharyngo-laryngeal myoclonus … an unusual cause of dysphagia.

Angela G Juby1, Patti Shandro2, Derek Emery3.   

Abstract

Dysphagia is a common problem in the elderly patient. Palato-pharyngo-laryngeal myoclonus, however, is a rare cause of this. We report a case of a 78-year-old man with dysphagia due to palato-pharngo-laryngeal myoclonus that was ultimately managed conservatively with a good functional outcome.
