title: [Calcific retropharyngeal tendinitis].
abstract: Calcific retropharyngeal tendinitis is a rare clinical entity of which we found only 31 published cases. We present a 45-year-old woman who suffered from severe pain and difficulty in swallowing. The course was benign and recovery was spontaneous. The main problem is the differential diagnosis between benign and malignant diseases that occur in the retropharyngeal area and in the intraspinal space.
