title: Dysphagia in dermatologic disease.
abstract: Disorders of the oral cavity, pharynx, and esophagus may be found in some dermatologic diseases. The connective tissue diseases especially may be accompanied by dysphagia. Furthermore, some rare inflammatory and bullous dermatologic diseases can lead to esophageal disorders. Finally, some infectious and malignant diseases occurring in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients cause dysphagia (Table 1). The following discussion presents a comprehensive review of these diseases and their typical esophageal dysfunction.
