BACKGROUND: An experimental study showed that thyropharyngeal, cricopharyngeal and cervical esophageal muscles of rabbits with iron deficiency anemia had morphological changes similar to those observed in muscular dystrophy, causing myastenic changes in muscles involved in swallowing. Our hypothesis is that patients with iron deficiency anemia may have a decrease in esophageal contractions with successive swallows. PATIENTS AND METHOD: We studied the esophageal motility of 12 women with iron deficiency anemia aged 31 to 50 years (median 36 years) with serum iron from 11 to 40 mug/dL (median 21 mug/dL), and 13 asymptomatic women aged 26 to 49 years (median 35 years) with serum iron over 60 mug/dL. We used the manometric method with continuou...
