Figure 1 Videofluoromanometry study.
A: Aspiration after swallowing (black arrow) with stagnation in the glossoepiglottic valleys and piriform sinuses (white arrows). Incomplete upper esophageal sphincter (UES) release (arrow); B: The same occurred with the head-rotated posture; stasis persisted at the pharyngoesophageal junction (white arrow), but there was no aspiration of the contrast medium. The UES was fully open (dashed box).
