(a) a hard mass protruding in the posterior hypopharyngeal wall. (b) CT scan shows a bony mass pushing the posterior piriform sinus wall anteriorly. (c) Axial T1 weighted-MRI shows a mass pushing the posterior piriform sinus wall anteriorly. (d) sagittal T1 weighted-MRI shows an anterior mass of the cervical spine from C4 to T1.

Flexible laryngoscopy revealed a left-sided protrusion in the posterior hypopharyngeal wall (Figure 1(a)). Axial computed tomography (CT) (Figure 1(b)) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (Figures 1(c) and 1(d)) of the neck showed a bony mass pushing, anteriorly, the posterior wall of the hypopharynx suggesting dysphagia associated with DISH.
