Abstrakt: A case of cervical glossopharyngeal schwannoma presenting with gagging dysphagia is presented. Treatment was by total excision of the schwannoma following which the patient made a good recovery. To our knowledge, this is the first report of gagging dysphagia associated with a glossopharyngeal schwannoma. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
