Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Summarize the treatment skills of esophagus perforation caused by esophageal foreign bodies. METHOD: Retrospectively analyze the seven cases of esophagus foreign body perforation with various complications in our department. RESULT: Six cases recovered in 3 to 18 days after operation, on average 14.2 day, while one case recovered in 49 days by conservative method. CONCLUSION: Foreign bodies removing, fistulae repairing, abscess incising, effusion rinsing, effective antibiotics administrating and support treatment are effective to treat esophagus perforation caused by esophageal foreign bodies. It will take a relative long time to be treated only by conservative way.
