O Fajolu.   

Abstract

This report reviews 271 cases of impacted foreign bodies in the esophagus seen at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital between January 1973 and January 1983. In 270 patients, esophagoscopy was employed to relieve the obstructions. One patient had a prolonged impaction requiring a surgical procedure. The diagnosis in two patients was made at autopsy.
