Entrapment of guide-wire during oesophageal dilation.

We report a patient who developed oesophageal stricture after accidental ingestion of acid. During one of the oesophageal dilation sessions, a Savary-Gillard guide-wire got entrapped in the stomach and had to be removed surgically. A Foley catheter, placed for feeding purposes, migrated into the proximal small intestine causing acute intestinal obstruction. The balloon of the Foley catheter had to be punctured using a sclerotherapy needle and the catheter withdrawn.
