OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: Combine techniques commonly employed in the clinical workup of patients with isolated globus sensation to identify the most common pharyngoesophageal abnormality. The primary aim was to retrospectively review high-resolution manometry, pH probe testing, contrast videofluoroscopy, and endoscopy studies in patients with a primary complaint of globus sensation. The specific hypothesis was esophageal high-resolution manometry identifies the most significant proportion of abnormalities compared to all other modalities.
STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study.
METHODS: An inclusive retrospective chart review was performed for patients evaluated between 2009 and 2016 with the primary complaint of globus sensation. Age at testing, self-identified gender, associated diagnoses, and results from each modality were collected. Descriptive statistics and pairwise comparisons were performed as well as sensitivity and specificity calculations.
RESULTS: One hundred seventy-two patients met inclusion criteria. The cohort had an age range of 22.7 to 88.5 years and was predominantly female. Esophageal manometry identified abnormalities in 62.8% of patients, and pH testing identified abnormal acidification in approximately 20%. The esophagram identified abnormalities in 24% of patients, and esophagogastroduodenoscopy identified abnormalities in 22%. Modified barium swallows were normal in 93% of patients. Measures of sensitivity and specificity of other modalities were poor compared to esophageal manometry and pH testing.
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with isolated globus sensation have evidence of esophageal dysmotility and laryngopharyngeal and gastroesophageal reflux disease in high proportions. Esophageal high-resolution manometry testing identifies the greatest proportion of abnormalities of the investigated modalities.
