ABSTRACT
A male patient, 41 years old, swallowed a chunk of muskmelon because his attention was not centralized. Odynophagia and dysphagia were the two main clinical manifestations. The esophagus barium swallow examination showed a foreign body in the upper esophagus. The patient did the rigid esophagoscope examination in the operating room under general anesthesia. There was a chunk of muskmelon in the upper esophagus and could not take it out from the esophagus by using foreign body forceps because the muskmelon was very crisp. In the end the muskmelon was sent in the stomach. The patient's symptoms were alleviated after operation.
