COMPLETELY PENETRATING ESOPHAGEAL FOREIGN BODY (“IS GOOD TO REMEMBER WHEN YOU EAT SOME CHICKEN AND FALL AFTER …”)
Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Impacted foreign bodies in the oesophagus are common and usually the flexible or rigid esophagoscopy are successful in their removal. In many cases, especially in children but even in adults, the anamnesis cannot reveal the foreign body swallowing despite the size of the specimen. We present a case of an impacted and almost completely penetrating foreign body (chicken bone) in the oesophagus, successfully removed by rigid esophagoscopy.
