[Mechanical injuries of the esophagus].
The authors have observed 15 patients with perforation of the oesophagus in the cervical (6) and thoracic (9) portions. Four patients died (26,8%). The authors consider that the operation of choice for the perforation of the oesophagus must be the operation of closure of the oesophagus wound or resection of the altered and perforated oesophagus, especially for injuries in the thoracic portion.
