The globus sysmptom is a patients, often middle aged women, complains of a lump and chocking sensation in the throat, Functional disturbance of the cricopharyngeal muscle, rendering it incapable of relaxing during swallowing, has long been recognized as a cause of globus symptom and dysphagia. We wanted to find out how often and to what extent disturbed relaxation of the cricopharyngeal muscle can be seen in patients with globus symptom with routine examination and videoesophagogram. The results were as follow : 1. Male : female ratio was 1: 2.4. 2. Globus symptom was most frequent in the age group between 30-39 of female. 2. Organic lesions were seen in 43.6%(24Pts) of globus patients. 4. Cricopharyngeal muscle was visualized in 29.1%(16Pts) of globus patients. And other findings were esophageal web in 7.3%(4Pths), esophageal diverticulum in 3.6%(2Pts) and degenerative spondylosis in 3.6%(2Pts). 5. Incidence of visualization of cricopharyngeal muscle were higher in male group 50%) than female one(20.5%). 6. Cricopharyngeal muscle was most frequently visualized on early swallowing phase(12/16Pts).
