Odynophagia secondary to variant thyroid cartilage anatomy DYSPHAGIA Lin, D., Fischbein, N., Eisele, D. W. 2005; 20 (3): 232–34Abstract

Diagnosis was made by computed tomography (CT) scan and confirmed by direct endoscopic examination. We review the literature that addresses possible etiologies of this variant anatomy and review treatment options.
