Between 1968 and 1988, 679 patients were hospitalized for ingestion of
caustic substances, and 87 had severe caustic burns of the entire
esophagus, together with panparietal necrosis. Twenty-one of them had
tracheobronchial necrosis with perforation. Fifteen have not been operated
on; six have had operations, with success in four. We describe an original
technique for repairing these tracheobronchial perforations with a
pulmonary patch.
