Double caustic, esophagic and pyloric stenosis post-ingestion of soda: Rare case

The ingestion of caustic soda is frequently a source of complications. Esophageal stenosis remains among them the most frequent complication and by far the most formidable. Pyloric stenosis remains rare following ingestion of soda. We report through this clinical case, a cicatricial pyloric stenosis after ingestion of caustic soda associated with a stenosis of the esophagus having caused vomiting with the onset of severe malnutrition. The diagnosis was confirmed by the oeso-gastro-duodenal transit (OGDT) and the child underwent under general anesthesia an enlargement pyloroplasty according to Mikulicz initially and an esophageal dilation secondly to the candle of SAVARY. The postoperative follow-up was favorable with an improvement of the signs and a progressive postoperative weight gain after a follow-up of 06 months. The evolution was favorable after the monthly dilation sessions with a good resumption of transit.
