SymptomsCategory: FOREIGN BODIES IN THE ESOPHAGUS Source: A Manual Of Peroral Endoscopy And Laryngeal Surgery Dysphagia is the most frequent complaint in cases of esophageally lodged foreign bodies. A very small object may excite sufficient spasm to cause aphagia, while a relatively large foreign body may be tolerated, after a time, so that the swallowing function may seem normal. Intermittent dysphagia suggests the tilting or shifting of a foreign body in a valve-like fashion; but may be due to occlusion of the by-passages by food arrested by the foreign body. Dyspnea may be present if the foreign body is large enough to compress the trachea. Cough may be excited by reflex irritation, overflow of secretions into the larynx, or by perforation of the posterior tracheal wall, traumatic or ulcerative, allowing leakage of food or secretion into the trachea.
