The Management of Esophageal Perforations

DAVID J. DUGAN M.D., F.C.C.P.

A series of 16 cases of esophageal perforations treated in the past four years is presented. Eleven of this group had perforations directly due to endoscopic procedures, while the remaining five cases were precipitated by other causes.

The treatment of each case is outlined, a discussion of the probable etiology is given and recommendations are made for future handling of similar cases.
