title: [Cervical osteophytosis as cause of dysphagia. Forestier-Rotes Querol's disease].
abstract: The so called Forestier-Rotes Querol's disease or diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis can affect the neck caused by osteophytos and ossification-calcification of the vertebral ligaments. The location in that region can produce dysphagia or hoarseness, among other symptoms, so that the patient can assist or be sent to ENT valoration. We are reporting a case of this pathology which was diagnosed in our hospital. Finally a bibliographic review is performed.
