PY - 2020 T2 - Tintinalli's Emergency Medicine: A Comprehensive Study Guide, 9e AB - The complaints of dysphagia, odynophagia, and foreign body sensation immediately implicate the esophagus. The esophagus also is often the site of pathology in patients who present with chest pain, upper GI bleeding (see Chapter 75, “Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding”), malignancy, and mediastinitis. Esophageal foreign body and esophageal perforation demand the attention of the emergency physician, but many diseases of the esophagus can be evaluated over time in an outpatient setting.
