Dysphagia aortica is a rare aetiology of dysphagia resulting from an abnormality in thoracic aorta that causes extrinsic compression on the oesophagus. Dysphagia aortica includes aortic aneurysm, aortic dissection or even tortuous aorta and is seldom considered in the differential diagnosis of dysphagia. Herein, we report a 30-year-old man with Behcet's disease who presented with rapid progressive dysphagia and diagnosed as dysphagia aortica caused by saccular aortic aneurysm complicated by large para-aortic haematoma compressing the oesophagus. The case reveals the importance of early and proper identification of the rare causes of dysphagia in young adults with complaint of dysphagia and history of recurrent oral and genital ulcers in absence of obvious cardiovascular diseases.
