ABSTRACT
Knowledge of the sequelae of caustic ingestion is of relevance to staff of the Emergency Room, Intensive Care Unit, surgical and gastroenterology services. It poses a considerable management problem and may result in life-threatening complications such as visceral perforation. This case report demonstrates an unusual and previously unreported manifestation of caustic injury.
