[Nasopharyngeal perforation: an exceptional accident during digestive endoscopy].
A case of an endoscopic nasopharynx perforation is reported. As we known, this accident has never been described. During introduction of a duodenal tube appeared a subcutaneous neck emphysema. Radios revealed pneumomediastinum, pneumoperitonitis and retropneumoperitonitis. Nasofibroscopy affirmed the diagnosis. The too fast death of this 92 years old patient didn't allow an adapted therapeutic.
