Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how diagnostic methods and treatments affect outcomes and survival rates in patients with pharyngeal perforations caused by medical procedures or trauma.
- A total of 36 patients were reviewed, with most being older adults (median age 73), and the majority had perforations located in the hypopharynx, which are associated with higher mortality risk.
- Results indicated that these patients had significantly higher risks of complications and mortality, especially linked to specific medical procedures like neurosurgery and transesophageal echocardiography.
