Moderate Gastrointestinal Complications Due to "Superglue" Ingestion in a Pediatric Patient.

ABSTRACT: Childhood cases of cyanoacrylates generally do not cause moderate or severe gastrointestinal complications. We report the case of a 3-year-old boy referred to our pediatric emergency room and admitted to the pediatric department with signs of upper gastrointestinal obstruction that required invasive intervention. Although it is rare, cyanoacrylate ingestion may injure esophageal and gastric mucosa in the pediatric population.
