Dysphagia caused by a hard cervical collar.

D J Houghton1, J W Curley.   

Abstract

It is important to consider unusual neck anatomy when fitting hard cervical collars after neurosurgical procedures. A collar which fits too tightly may restrict laryngeal movement during swallowing causing dysphagia, which could be mistaken for damage to neuromuscular function in this group of patients.
