Association of Oesophageal Hypertension with Bradycardia Mediated Deglutition Syncope.
Swallow syncope is a rare form of situational syncope. We report a case of swallow syncope with invasive confirmation of esophageal hypertension (spasm) and invasive confirmation of a bradycardia mechanism. Awareness of this uncommon disorder is important as a treatable cause of syncope.
متن کاملDeglutition Syncope: A Case Report and Review of the Literature
Deglutition syncope (DS) is a rare, neurally-mediated syncopal syndrome arising from an aberrant vagotonic reflex during swallow-associated esophageal dilation. Its association with gastroesophageal disorders often prompts gastroenterology consultation. An 89-year-old man with recent dysphagia and otalgia was admitted after a syncopal episode occurred while eating. Esophageal imaging and endosc...
متن کاملDeglutition Syncope: Two Case Reports Attributed to Vagal Hyperactivity
Deglutition syncope is a relatively rare cause of syncope that belongs to the category of neurally mediated reflex syncopal syndromes. The phenomenon is related to vagal reflex in context to deglutition causing atrioventricular block and acute reduction in cardiac output leading to dizziness or syncope. We present case series of two cases of deglutition syncope, of which first was managed medic...

to recall certain normal processes involved in this function. In the laryngo-pharynx the most important mechanism is the closure of the larynx. This is effected by the apposition and tilting forward of the arytenoids and the apposition of the aryepiglottic folds, while a raising of the larynx brings the arytenoids with their cornicula into contact with the cushion of the epiglottis. The contrac...
متن کاملDeglutition Syncope Associated With Ventricular Asystole in a Patient With Permanent Atrial Fibrillation
Deglutition syncope is a situational syncope that is diagnosed only by a detailed history. We report deglutition syncope in a 62-year-old man, who had permanent atrial fibrillation. The patient had no structural or functional abnormalities of the esophagus. During syncopal attacks, his electrocardiography showed ventricular asystole that was sustained for 12 seconds. The patient was successfull...
