Intramural hematoma (incomplete perforation) of the esophagus associated with esophageal dilatation

JL Bradley and SY Han

Five cases of intramural hematoma of the esophagus complicating esophageal dilatation are presented along with a review of the literature. In all 5 patients, this complication developed during dilatation for benign stricture. The esophagram in each patient demonstrated double columns of contrast material separated by a radiolucent stripe, characteristic of incomplete tear of the esophagus. All 5 responded to conservative management without complication.
