It generally compromises the axial skeleton and in some cases the peripheral joints. This disease is more prevalent in men than women and the incidence increases with age – it is rarely seen before the 4th decade of life. It becomes symptomatic when the hyperosteosis involves the anterior margin of the cervical vertebrae, causing dysphonia, dyspnea and/or dysphagia. First described in 1950 by Forestier and Rotes-Querol [1] and reviewed in 1970 by Resnick et al. [2], the literature does not set a standard for the diagnosis or treatment of DISH. The purpose of this paper is to report a case of dysphagia lusoria due to DISH.","PeriodicalId":11275,"journal":{"name":"Diagnostic imaging","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74239072","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
