ABSTRACT

Las quemaduras del tracto digestivo generan gran comorbilidad en el paciente expuesto, por su capacidad de lesión y dependen si se genera por álcali o por ácido. El momento ideal de endoscopia aún es debatido y las secuelas de estos pacientes pueden ser devastadoras. Presentamos el caso de una paciente con intento suicida tras ingerir ácido muriático, sus hallazgos endoscópicos, complicaciones y manejo de estos.


Digestive tract burns can create high levels of comorbidity in an exposed patient although these levels depend on the different capacities to cause harm of alkalis and acids. The ideal moment for endoscopy in these cases is currently being debated as a patient’s post burn reactions may be devastating. We present the case of a patient who attempted to commit suicide by ingesting muriatic acid including clinical findings, complications and management.
