Swallow syncope in a patient with esophageal stenosis caused by an ascending aorta aneurysm: differential diagnosis from postprandial hypotension: a case report.

Abstract:

:Swallow syncope is usually caused by organic or functional disorders of the esophagus due to abnormal vasovagal reflex. In elderly patients this situation could be confused with postprandial hypotension. We present a case of an elderly patient who presented with swallow syncope that was caused by a waist in the midportion of esophagus induced by an ascending aorta aneurysm.
