Lateral cervical X-ray and T2-weighted sagittal magnetic resonance. We observed an extensive calcification in front of vertebral bodies of C2 to C6 in topography of anterior longitudinal ligament. Esophagus and airways present a posterior compromising, which determine a stenosed segment that difficult orotracheal intubation at time of surgical procedure
