초록

Acute esophageal necrosis is uncommon in the literature. Its etiology is unknown,although cardiovascular disease, hemodynamic compromise, gastricoutlet obstruction, alcohol ingestion, hypoxemia, hypercoagulable state, infection,and trauma have all been suggested as possible causes. A 67-year-old femaleunderwent a coronary angiography (CAG) for evaluation of chest pain. CAG findingsshowed coronary three-vessel disease. We planned percutaneous coronaryintervention (PCI). Coronary arterial dissection during the PCI led to suddenhypotension. Six hours after the index procedure, the patient experienced a largeamount of hematemesis. Emergency gastrofibroscopy was performed and showedmucosal necrosis with a huge adherent blood clot in the esophagus. After conservativetreatment for 3 months, the esophageal lesion was completely improved. She was diagnosed with acute esophageal necrosis. We report herein a case ofacute esophageal necrosis occurring in a patient undergoing percutaneous coronaryintervention.
