ABSTRACT

The neurological dysphagia refers to the difficulty to swallow that it can be of a lesion or neurological illness. Most of the symptoms and complications of that derive of a neurological dysphagia are due to the sensory-motive alteration of the oral and pharyngeal phase of the deglution. This means that the neurological dysfunction of the oral cavity and/or of the pharynx it can interrupt the muscular actions that are usually good to pass the skittle from the oral cavity to the esophagus without penetrating in the nasopharinx or in the larynx. Some neurological illnesses alter as much the function esophagic as the oropharyngeal, but in most of the cases the problems are the more clinical predominance such as those related with the oropharyngeal dysphagia. This revisition point out the clinical presentation and evaluation of the neurological oropharyngeal dysphagia with special attention to three illnesses that involved to the central nervous system: the cerebrovascular accidents, the cerebral trauma and the cerebral palsy.
