Conn Med.

Abstract
We report a case of esophageal perforation in a premature infant probably related to instrumentation. The child had also received the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, indomethacin. An exhaustive review of the literature has been done to define the clinical profile and current recommendations for management.
