Systematic review of rigid and flexible esophagoscopy for pediatric esophageal foreign bodies
International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology, 2020Esophageal foreign body (EFB) is a common presentation in pediatric hospitals. Rigid and flexible esophagoscopy are both primary modalities used for EFB removal. By systematically reviewing the literature, we sought to assess success and complication rates of both rigid and flexible esophagoscopy in pediatric EFB retrieval.A systematic search of the ...

A&A Practice, 2018
This is the first account of significant aortic injury during diagnostic rigid esophagoscopy in an adult with an esophageal stricture. We describe the resultant hemothorax and hemodynamic collapse and the successful treatment with massive volume resuscitation, vasopressors, and timely surgical intervention including thoracic endovascular aortic repair.
