- W4313473961 abstract "Ingestion of caustic substances, either acidic or alkali, is a well-known cause of significant mortality and morbidity in the pediatric and adult populations. According to the pH, physical form, amount, and rate of ingestion of these substances, a wide range of immediate as well as possible subsequent chronic complications can result. Some patients may have minimal to mild symptoms. However, others can present with moderate or even serious symptoms, in the form of dysphagia, odynophagia, hoarseness, and epigastric pain. Herein we present a case of a 26-year-old male patient with a history of Nitric acid ingestion. He initially complained of severe chest and abdominal pain, associated with hematemesis, dysphagia, odynophagia, hypersalivation, and inability to tolerate oral intake. Initial Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) showed diffuse mucosal ulceration reaching the second part of the duodenum. Multiple subsequent EGDs revealed more extensive damage and subsequent esophageal stricture and pyloric stenosis for which multiple dilatation attempts were done. The patient received extensive supportive management during his hospitalization course, but the damage was severe enough that he was referred for surgical management. Such catastrophic sequels of caustic ingestion are still encountered, especially in developing countries. We present this case looking forward to raising awareness about this dangerous phenomenon and highlighting the significance of immediate identification and grading of the injury." @default.
