OBJECTIVES: To describe our center's experience with the identification and treatment of retrograde cricopharyngeus dysfunction (R-CPD), a syndrome involving the inability to belch previously described by only one institution. Additionally, because all patients initially learned of their condition and sought treatment as a result of social media posts, we queried their source and comfort with this form of medical referral.
METHODS: Retrospective chart review of patients who underwent botulism toxin injection into the cricopharyngeus muscle for treatment of R-CPD from 2019 to 2022. Demographic data, most common symptoms at presentation, and response to treatment and complications were documented. Post-treatment questionnaires were reviewed.
RESULTS: A total of 85 patients were identified. Mean age at surgery was 27 years. There were 54 (63.5%) females and 31 (36.5%) males. The inability to burp (98.8%), bloating (92.9%), gurgling noises (31.8%), and excessive flatulence (21.2%) were the most common symptoms. The minimum units of botox utilized were 25, whereas the maximum was 100. The majority of patients (88.2%) had a successful response at initial follow-up visit. The most common complication was mild dysphagia (30.6%), which was transient for all patients. Most patients learned of our practice through social media, with only one patient being referred by a medical provider.
CONCLUSIONS: The majority of patients in our cohort were young and female. The inability to burp and bloating were the most common presenting symptoms. Social media was the primary source of referral. Our institution favors 80-100 units for an effective response. Laryngoscope, 133:1081-1085, 2023.
