==Prognosis==
Patients generally respond well to treatment. Iron supplementation usually resolves the anemia, and corrects the [[glossodynia]] (tongue pain).


==Complications==


There is risk of perforation of the esophagus with the use of dilators for treatment.
Furthermore it is one of the risk factors for developing [[squamous cell carcinoma]] of the oesophagus.


==Prevention==
Good nutrition with adequate intake of iron may prevent this disorder.
