Two cases of esophageal perforations consequent upon chronic retained foreign bodies are presented. In both patients a mediastinal mass associated with the foreign body was noted on chest radiography. Retrieval of the foreign bodies, although feasible by esophagoscopy in 1 patient, was unsuccessful in the second patient, thus necessitating thoracotomy.
本文报告两例因慢性异物存留导致食管穿孔的病例。两名患者胸部X线检查均发现纵隔肿物与异物有关。其中1例患者可行食管镜取出异物,但另1例患者未成功,因此需要开胸手术。
