Cervical esophageal perforation secondary to a chicken wing bone: A case report and literature review

We report the case of a 39-year-old female patient admitted to the emergency department for acute odynophagia following the ingestion of roasted chicken. Imaging revealed a foreign body lodged in the cervical esophagus, causing a focal perforation. Surgical removal resulted in a favorable outcome. This case highlights the importance of prompt diagnosis and multidisciplinary management of non-traumatic esophageal perforations.

We report the case of a 39-year-old female patient admitted to the emergency department for acute odynophagia following the ingestion of roasted chicken. Imaging revealed a foreign body lodged in the cervical esophagus, causing a focal perforation. Surgical removal resulted in a favorable outcome. This case highlights the importance of prompt diagnosis and multidisciplinary management of non-traumatic esophageal perforations.
