ABSTRACT
A 73 year-old male presented with recurrent episodes of syncope associated with swallowing. Head up tilt test revealed positive response and electrocardiogram revealed a sinus pause with swallowing of carbonated beverages. Underlying esophageal or cardiac disease was not found after evaluation. These findings suggest that a disturbance in the autonomic feedback loop of cardiovascular reflex led to the vasovagal syncope and swallow syncope in this patient. We experienced a case of swallow syncope with sinus pause and vasovagal syncope diagnosed by head up tilt test. This is the first case in Korea that presented with both swallow syncope and vasovagal syncope.
