摘要
Dysphagia is a regular occurrence after cervical spine surgery, and the development of dysphagia postoperatively is associated with worsened quality of life for patients. Despite the frequency and negative implications of this adverse outcome, there is no clear consensus for defining dysphagia within the spinal literature. Numerous patient-reported outcomes questionnaires are currently used to elucidate the presence and severity of postoperative dysphagia, several of which are not validated instruments. This variability in reporting creates difficulty when trying to determine the prevalence of dysphagia and any potential mitigating factors. In the current review, the authors discuss the causes of postoperative dysphagia after cervical spine surgery, metrics for evaluating postoperative dysphagia, risk factors for the development of this adverse outcome, and strategies for preventing its development. Readers will be able to use this information to improve patient outcomes after cervical spine surgery.
