Iatrogenic true intra abdominal perforation of the esophagus with pathology in the upper esophagus
Journal Title: GJRA-Global Journal For Research Analysis - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
Iatrogenic perforation is by far the most common cause of esophageal perforation. Intra abdominal perforation of esophagus is very rare especially when pathology is present in upper esophagus. Diagnosis requires high degree of suspicion and it must be confirmed in any patient presented with chest or abdominal pain following esophageal dilatation. The aim of reporting this case is to draw attention that perforation can occur at the site distal to the pathology and endoscopists should be very gentle in performing dilatation. It is advisable to perform dilatation under fluoroscopic guidance and check contrast study should be performed at the end to rule out any adverse event.
