Dysphagia in children with oculo-auriculo-vertebral spectrum.
Feeding difficulty necessitating tube feeding after the infantile period was seen in 3 children with oculo-auriculo-vertebral spectrum. Videofluorographic imaging showed impaired pharyngeal function, which was thought to result from dysplasia of the pharyngeal muscles. Note should be made of feeding difficulty in patients with oculo-auriculo-vertebral spectrum.
