Abstract

The experience of treating 107 patients with esophageal trauma is generalized. The main diagnostic method was clinical and X-ray examination. Esophagoscopy was performed in unclear cases and to remove foreign bodies. For non-penetrating lesions, conservative treatment is effective. In case of perforation, the wound was sutured or the esophagus resected at an early stage, and drainage operations were performed at a later date. The mortality rate was 15%. The main causes of death were severe complications due to late diagnosis.
