The Plummer-Vinson syndrome is very uncommon in Latin America. Four cases showing the clinical-radiological and hematological features of this syndrome are described. Three cases were treated with esophageal dilatation and Ferro therapy. The radiological evaluation may show deformities in the faringo-esophageal lumen other than the esophageal webs, such as hypertrophy of the cricopharingeal sphincter and of the retrocricoid venous plexus as well as the demonstration of esophageal webs in the patients without symptoms or signs of the Plummer Vinson Syndrome.
普卢默-文森综合征在拉丁美洲非常罕见。本文描述了4例具有该综合征临床、放射学和血液学特征的病例。3例患者接受了食管扩张术和铁剂治疗。放射学评估可能显示除食管蹼外的咽-食管腔畸形，如环咽括约肌和环后静脉丛肥大，以及在无普卢默-文森综合征症状或体征的患者中发现食管蹼。
