Abstract :
Pneumopericardium is an unusual complication of esophageal foreign body removal. Although a few adult cases have been reported, to the best of our knowledge, pneumopericardium due to esophageal foreign body removal in children has not been published previously in the literature. Here, we present a case of pneumomediastinum with pneumopericardium that developed after esophageal foreign body removal in a one-year-old infant.
