RESUMEN
We describe a previously unreported and potentially fatal complication of esophageal perforation following cardiopulmonary resuscitation in a 74-year-old man with cardiac arrest subsequent to ventricular tachycardia caused by ischemic heart disease. We discuss the importance of searching for severe traumatic complications. This description emphasizes presenting complaints, early recognition, and management strategies of such cases (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate).
