ABSTRACT

Introduction: the ingestion of foreign bodies is frequent in the pediatric population, constituting one of the main causes of urgent endoscopy, since the esophagus is the main site of lodging. Objective: to compare the type of esophageal injuries caused by ingestion of foreign bodies according to the time of their removal by endoscopy. Material and methods: a cross-sectional study was conducted, which included 73 pediatric patients who underwent endoscopic removal of foreign bodies in a third-level pediatric hospital. The severity of the lesions found in the esophagus was analyzed according to the time between ingestion and removal of the foreign body. Results: patients with an evolution > 24 hours had a higher proportion of superficial ulcers (31.3%) and deep ulcers (37.4%), which was lower in patients with an evolution of 12 to 24 hours, since they presented superficial ulcers in 19.4%; while patients with < 12 hours had superficial lesions in 14.3%. Conclusions: in patients with ingestion of foreign bodies, the longer the time taken for their removal, the greater the severity of esophageal injuries.
