Abstract
An 88-year-old man ingested coins accidentally and developed
mediastinitis and septic shock. Esophageal injuries by sharped-shape
foreign bodies are often reported, but esophageal perforation by round
coins is rare. Even rounded-shape foreign bodies that are unlikely to
injure esophagus may lead to severe outcomes.08 Oct 2022Submitted to Clinical Case Reports 10 Oct 2022Submission Checks Completed
