Abstract
Swallowing difficulty may occur in children as an isolated problem, but it is more commonly seen as one of a constellation of issues in patients with multiple abnormalities (1). Pediatric feeding problems are often complex because systems are already stressed by the demands of growth and development, nutritional needs are usually greater than those of adults, anatomic structures grow and their relationships change, and the central nervous system is maturing.
