Cervical perforation due to a foreign body: Case report
Keywords
Abstract
Cervical esophageal perforations by foreign bodies are uncommon. Its surgical approach depends on the degree of injury to the cervical structures and the development of signs and symptoms of cervical-mediastinal infection3. Increased intraluminal pressure at anatomical sites of narrowing, as well as at sites narrowed by malignancy, foreign body, or physiological dysfunction, can lead to rupture of the esophagus. Patients often present with neck pain that may be accompanied by dysphagia, hoarseness, dysphonia, or subcutaneous emphysema.
