We present a rare case of spontaneous intramural oesophageal perforation after the rapid ingestion of a cold carbonated beverage. A previously well patient presented with sudden onset of severe retrosternal pain associated with pain on swallowing. A contrast computed tomography scan and gastroscopy confirmed the diagnosis. With the widespread popular practice of drinking cold carbonated beverages, especially during the summer season, clinicians should be aware of this possible serious complication.
我们报告一例罕见的在快速饮用冷碳酸饮料后发生的自发性食管壁内穿孔病例。一名既往健康的患者突然出现严重的胸骨后疼痛，并伴有吞咽疼痛。对比增强计算机断层扫描和胃镜检查确诊了该病例。鉴于饮用冷碳酸饮料的广泛流行做法，尤其是在夏季，临床医生应意识到这种可能的严重并发症。
