- Abstract
- The case is presented of a 28-year-old female with a brain abscess after esophageal dilatation for stricture, secondary to an acute necrotizing esophagitis. Other causes of brain abscess were excluded. To our knowledge this is the first documented case of brain abscess after dilatation for esophageal stricture in adult life. Some reports in the pediatric literature have been published previously.
