Spontaneous rupture of the esophagus is an uncommon disease which was first reported by Boerhaave in 1724. This esophageal rupture usually occurs during nausea or vomiting, with incoordinate esophageal contraction. Early diagnosis and prompt surgical repair are critical for survival; however late recognition of esophageal rupture is not unusual. In recent years, a variety of nonsurgical approaches have been proposed, particularily in the case of delayed diagnosis. We have experienced one case of Boerhaave's syndrome concomitantly developed with acute pancreatitis which was successfully treated by nonsurgical measures including endoscopic clipping, antibiotics and hyperalimentation. We review the choice of treatment method in delayed diagnosed Boerhaave's syndrome.
