Journal Title: Sağlık Akademisi Kastamonu - Year 2019, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Acute mediastinitis is a rare condition with a high mortality rate. One of the causes of acute mediastinitis is perforation due to esophageal foreign bodies. Acute mediastinitis can easily develop after the perforation because of vasculare and physiological structure of the mediastinum and it is a very high mortality condition. In case of acute mediastinitis due to esophageal foreign bodies, medical and surgical treatment should be started as soon as possible. In this article, we present a case in which a patient registered late (on 18th day) and was diagnosed with acute acute mediastinitis and empyema due to fish bone stick into the esophagus and died within minutes after beggining of the treatment.
