title: [Lethal complications caused by perforating esophageal injuries (author's transl)].
abstract: Symptoms, complications, and pathoanatomic findings of three cases, in which the esophageal perforation originally caused the death, are demonstrated. The first case deals with an pressure-errosion as a result of gavage, the second an incised wound by a razor blade, and the third a through-and-through gunshot wound of the upper part of the esophagus.
