There is extensive calcification of the longus coli muscle anteriorly with evidence of fluid collection in the retropharyngeal space which measures approximately 3 cm on transverse, 1 cm on the AP and it is extending from C2 down to upper border of the C4. No evidence of soft tissue enhancement which would suggest retropharyngeal abscess. The fluid collection is related to calcific tendinitis of the longus colli muscle.
