Button battery ingestion has been a common condition encountered by otorhinolaryngologists. Impaction in the esophagus can lead to serious and fatal complications such as tracheoesophageal fistula. Management involves a multidisciplinary team and varies from supportive therapy to surgical intervention.
Ingestion of button batteries has been seen with increasing frequency over the past decade. In several small numbers of reported cases, their impaction in the esophagus has led to severe, sometimes fatal, complications. The management of these cases has varied from expectant, supportive therapy to early surgical intervention. We report a case of button battery ingestion that was diagnosed late and resulted in a complication of tracheoesophageal fistula with migration to the thorax which was managed by open surgery.
纽扣电池误吞是耳鼻喉科医生常见的病症。嵌顿于食管可导致严重及致命并发症，如气管食管瘘。治疗需要多学科团队参与，治疗方式从支持治疗到手术干预不等。
在过去十年中，纽扣电池误吞的情况越来越常见。在少数报告病例中，纽扣电池嵌顿于食管导致了严重的，有时甚至是致命的并发症。这些病例的治疗方式各不相同，从观察、支持治疗到早期手术干预。我们报告一例纽扣电池误吞病例，该病例诊断较晚，导致气管食管瘘并迁移至胸部，通过开放手术进行治疗。
