Esophageal perforation is one of the most important lesions of the digestive system with serious complications and a high mortality rate, requiring an early diagnosis and timely management. The causes can be iatrogenic, traumatic, caustic or secondary due to foreign bodies. The present case reports deep esophageal laceration caused by a foreign body in an older infant treated with a fully covered biliary stent, with clinical and technical success.
