식도이물에 의한 합병증 경험 2례

Whether the result of instrumentation, tumor, spontaneous rupture, trauma, or foreign body ingestion, esophageal perforation is as event associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The incidence of perforation following foreign body ingestion appears low, however, the complications are no less severe.

We experienced 2 cases of migrating esophageal foreign body ; one is to the retropharyngeal space and another to the carotid sheath, so we report our clinical experiences with review of literatures.
