Successful management of an aorto-esophageal fistula following button battery ingestion: A case report and review of the literature
Foreign body ingestion is a common event among pediatric patients, especially in children less than 6 years of age. Although most cases are relatively benign, with the foreign body passing spontaneously or requiring a brief endoscopic procedure for removal, button battery ingestion is known to cause...

description | Foreign body ingestion is a common event among pediatric patients, especially in children less than 6 years of age. Although most cases are relatively benign, with the foreign body passing spontaneously or requiring a brief endoscopic procedure for removal, button battery ingestion is known to cause significant morbidity with the potential for mortality. Although aorto-esophageal fistula (AEF) is a rare complication following button battery ingestion, its clinical manifestations are significant and outcomes are poor. Early diagnosis and aggressive treatment are key in preventing fatal complications. We describe the successful management of an AEF which presented with hematemesis 8 days after removal of a button battery in a 17-month-old female. The literature regarding button battery ingestion and AEF is reviewed and treatment options including intraoperative anesthetic care discussed. |
