Abstract

Foreign body ingestion is rare in adults compared to children. Foreign body ingestion is accidental in 95 percent of cases and is usually related to food (eg fish and chicken bone, toothpick). Most of the ingested foreign bodies reach the stomach without intervention (80 to 90%). Endoscopic intervention is required in 10 to 20 percent of patients and surgical intervention is required in less than 1 percent. In this article, we present an esophageal perforation and acute mediastinitis in a patient who swallowed fishbone. The fishbone ingestion complicated with esophageal perforation and acute mediastinitis is life-threatening. In cases of untreated or delayed treatment, serious morbidity and mortality are encountered.

Key words: Esophageal Perforation, Mediastinitis, Foreign Bodies

Balık kılçığı yutulmasına bağlı özofagus perforasyonu ve akut mediastinit

Abstract

Yabancı cisim yutulması yetişkinlerde çocuklara göre nadirdir. Yabancı cisim yutulması vakaların yüzde 95'inde tesadüfidir ve genellikle yemekle ilgilidir (Balık ve tavuk kemiği, kürdan vb.). Yutulan yabancı cisimlerin çoğu müdahaleye gerek kalmadan mideye iner (%80 ila 90). Endoskopik girişim hastaların yüzde 10 ila 20'sinde, cerrahi girişim ise yüzde 1'inden daha azında gereklidir. Bu yazıda, balık kılçığı yutan bir hastada gelişen özofagus perforasyonu ve akut mediastinit tablosunu sunduk. Özofagus perforasyonu ve akut mediastinitle komplike olan balık kılçığı aspirasyonu hayatı tehdit edici bir tablodur. Tedavi edilmeyen ya da tedavisi geciken vakalarda ciddi morbidite ve mortalite ile karşılaşılmaktadır.
