Penetrating aortic ulcer following endoscopic dilatation of esophageal anastomotic stenosis: a case report
This rare case of a PAU and Ortner's syndrome following endoscopic dilation underscores the critical importance of vigilance for life-threatening vascular injuries after seemingly routine procedures. It highlights the necessity of considering such complications in the differential diagnosis of post-procedural symptoms and demonstrates the efficacy of endovascular repair as a definitive treatment option.
