Popis:	Boerhaave's syndrome, or postemetic rupture of the esophagus,represents one of several etiologies of esophageal perforation. Early diagnosis, which requires both a high index of suspicion and contrast esophagography, is essential for optimal outcome. Primary repair is often possible, although other techniques, such as esophageal exclusion or diversion, may be appropriate in certain circumstances.
