"Globus is a sensation of a lump or tightness in the throat. This is"
"a commoen disorder accounting for 4% of new otolaryngological referrals. The etiologoly of glogus is still an enigma and is frequently attributed to laryngopharyngeal and gastroesophageal reflux.
There is no consensus in its management. This article reviews last developments e recent works on Globus and discuss aspects of its"
"etiology and management."
