Oropharyngeal Dysphagia in Mucopolysaccharidoses: Evidence from Videofluoroscopic Swallowing Study

Journal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2022
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are rare inborn errors of metabolism, leading to the accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAG) in distinct tissues. We investigated oropharyngeal dysphagia using the videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS) in patients with ...
