| Popis: | Most foreign bodies ingested or impacted food boluses in the esophagus pass spontaneously to the stomach without requiring an intervention of extracting them. However, in 10-20% of cases, it is necessary to intervene endoscopic to extract the foreign body and, in very rare cases, about 1% surgical intervention for the extraction of the esophageal body is demanded. Sensitive categories for the foreign esophageal bodies are firstly children and rarely the adults. Foreign esophageal bodies are more common in children than in adults, and it is one of the pediatric otorhinolaryngology emergencies. The authors present the case of a 14 years old patient, at whom the esophagoscopy under general anesthesia, which was imperious, has detected a rare vegetal esophageal foreign body. |
