Abstract

CT images revealed C3-C4 anterior longitudinal ligament calcification, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated retropharyngeal prevertebral soft tissue edema and inflammation [Figure 2]. Because of the nontypical localization of the prevertebral calcification, retropharyngeal drainage was planned to rule out abscess. [...]patient was discharged with medical treatment.
