Abstract

Accidental ingestion of caustics is both a medical and social problem in the pediatric population. They can produce lesions of varying severity, such as mediastinitis or esophageal perforation, and later ones, such as esophageal stenosis, initially managed by the use of stents or mechanical dilations. In the most critical cases where they have not given the result, they have an indication to perform an esophageal replacement. The following is a case report of esophageal replacement secondary to esophageal stricture and a review of the literature on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of esophageal stricture secondary to caustic ingestion.
