Management of Absent Upper Esophageal Sphincter Opening After Neurological Injury [PDF]

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 10, Page 4383-4391, October 2026.
This study evaluated the effects of swallowing therapy and cricopharyngeus (CP) muscle surgery on upper esophageal sphincter (UES) opening, oral intake, and airway protection in patients with absent UES opening following neurological injury. CP‐targeted surgeries were associated with improved bolus passage and oral intake, but persistent aspiration ...
