Black esophagus is a very rare disease and its pathogenesis has been unclear. Black esophagus developed concomitantly with candidiasis after diabetic ketoacidosis has not been reported yet. We report a case who developed esophageal stricture after the treatment of black esophagus and thus balloon dilatation was performed several times but failed, hence, surgical treatment was performed.
黑色食管是一种非常罕见的疾病,其发病机制尚不清楚。糖尿病酮症酸中毒后并发念珠菌病的黑色食管尚未见报道。我们报告一例在黑色食管治疗后出现食管狭窄的病例,因此多次进行球囊扩张但均失败,故行手术治疗。
