Abstract

Vegetable matter, especially fruit seed impaction, is uncommon in Otolaryngology practice. If it happens, there should be a possibility of abnormality in the oesophagus like stricture, web, malignancy, trauma or diverticulum. Here we present a case of seed as a foreign body oesophagus in a patient who was a known case of carcinoma left buccal mucosa status post left hemimandibulectomy with flap reconstruction Radiotherapy 20 years ago. We explained the practical and logistic issues while intubation and doing oesophagoscopy in this patient.
