Effects of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation on Chronic Dysphagia in a Single Subject after Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion Surgery: A Case Report

Swallowing function should be tracked routinely and longitudinally in post-ACDF surgery patients. NMES may be a potential dysphagia therapy modality to explore.
