title: [Perforation of the cervical esophagus during tracheal intubation. Apropos of a personal case].
abstract: On the occasion of a personal case of perforation of the cervical oesophagus by laborious tracheal intubation which had necessitated the use of a rigid stilet, we found seven similar cases in the literature since 1971 which can be added to the 16 collected by DUBOST in 1971. We analyse the etiological circumstances, the clinical picture the course and action taken in these eight cases. From this we draw practical conclusions which are imperative during anesthesia.
