Transient esophageal obstruction in a young man: an intramural esophageal hematoma?

S C Lauzon et al. Dis Esophagus. 2005.

Abstract

SUMMARY. We present a case of a 20-year-old, previously healthy, male student who presented with dysphagia secondary to mechanical esophageal obstruction that resolved spontaneously. Although our patient did not have 'classic' patient characteristics, we believe that the clinical evidence supports the conclusion that our patient was an atypical presentation of intramural esophageal hematoma.
