RESUMEN
Se realizó un estudio descriptivo y transversal de 30 pacientes con mediastinitis aguda por perforación esofágica, operados en el Hospital Provincial Docente Clinicoquirúrgico Saturnino Lora Torres de Santiago de Cuba, con vistas a caracterizarles desde los puntos de vista clínico, diagnóstico y quirúrgico, desde enero de 1990 hasta agosto de 2016. La incidencia de la enfermedad fue de 37,9 por cada 100 000 habitantes con predominio de los pacientes jóvenes, en los cuales la esofagoscopia terapéutica por cuerpo extraño de difícil extracción fue la causa más frecuente de la perforación torácica, acompañada de síntomas y signos de síndrome esofágico y de sepsis, asociada a la presencia de estafilococos y estreptococos. La tomografía computarizada constituyó el examen de mayor valor para el diagnóstico, en tanto, los diferentes hallazgos durante la intervención quirúrgica estuvieron en dependencia del grado de infección mediastinal. Se necesita un conocimiento exhaustivo de los antecedentes, la clínica y posibles resultados de los exámenes complementarios para asumir una conducta rápida y eficaz, a fin de lograr la disminución de la mortalidad por dicha afección

The incidence of the disease was 37.9 out of 100 000 inhabitants with the young patients prevalence, in which the therapeutic esophagoscopy due to strange body of difficult extraction was the most frequent cause in the thoracic perforation, accompanied by symptoms and signs of esophageal syndrome and sepsis, associated with the staphylococci and streptococci presence. The computerized axial tomography constituted the exam of more value for the diagnosis, as long as, the different findings during the surgical intervention were in dependence of the grade of mediastinal infection.
