Complications associated with the use of the Celestin tube for benign oesophageal obstruction
Abstract
Two cases are described in which disruption of a Celestin tube took place after being lodged in a benign oesophageal stricture for 14 months. One patient presented with apparent acute pancreatitis and the other with a minor gastrointestinal bleed.
