Abstract
Foreign body ingestion is a common complaint in the pediatric emergency departments. Esophageal foreign body is a potentially serious cause of morbidity and mortality in children. Here we report an interesting case of disk battery ingestion resulting tracheo-esophageal fistula (TEF). The surgery for repair of TEF was done one month after ingestion. A brief review of the diagnosis and management of esophageal foreign bodies is presented with particular focus on ingested disk batteries.
