Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: This case highlights the consequences of colon interposition on phonation and swallowing. Findings in this patient included laryngopharyngeal reflux, vocal fold paralysis, poor esophageal peristalsis, failed bolus transfers, and others. The mechanical and functional differences between the colon and the esophagus can impact bolus transfer, reflux, and phonation. Further research is required to identify the mechanisms by which colon interposition can impact voice and swallowing. PMID:34427138 | DOI:10.1177/01455613211041786 View on the web Inoreader.
