Most medical speech-language pathologists are acquainted with common etiologies of dysphagia, such as strokes, head injury, brain tumors, etc. However, there are less common disorders and syndromes that contribute to dysphagia that are not included in most textbooks and reference guides. Consequently, many clinicians who specialize in swallowing disorders are unaware of the impact that most uncommon diseases can have on swallowing. Clearly organized, each chapter is divided into six sections: Definition, History, Etiology, Epidemiology, Clinical Manifestations of Dysphagia, and Management of Dysphagia. Each chapter begins with a list of key terms that are bolded throughout the text and included in a glossary"-- Plummer-Vinson Syndrome -- Niemann-Pick Disease Type C -- Stuve-Wiedemann Syndrome -- Congenital Esophageal Stenosis -- Sporadic Inclusion Body Myositis -- Moebius Syndrome -- Ataxia Telangiectasia -- Pontocerebellar Hypoplasia -- Fahr's Syndrome -- Biotin-Responsive Basal Ganglia Disease -- Pompe Disease -- Nemaline Myopathy -- Immunoglobulin G4-Related Disease -- Esophageal Atresia -- Wallenberg's Syndrome.
