RESUMEN
En pacientes que se presentan con disfagia y/o odinofagia súbitas después de ingerir alimentos, debemos sospechar la ingestión de un cuerpo extraño. Los cuerpos extraños en esófago no siempre son visibles en una radiografía de cuello, por lo que debemos utilizar otros métodos diagnósticos como la tomografía axial computarizada y la gastroscopía. El presente caso ilustra la ingestión accidental del sello de un envase de leche.
ABSTRACT
In patients acute with dysphagia and/or odynophagia after ingestión of a meal, we should always suspect the ingestion of a foreign body. Esophageal foreign bodies are not always visible on X-rays and we must rely on other diagnostic methods like CT scan and endoscopy. This case ilustrates the accidental ingestion of the seal of a milk carton.
