    AbstractBetween 1968 and 1988, 679 patients were hospitalized for ingestion of caustic substances, and 87 had severe caustic burns of the entire esophagus, together with panparietal necrosis. Twenty-one of them had tracheobronchial necrosis with perforation. Fifteen have not been operated on; six have had operations, with success in four. We describe an original technique for repairing these tracheobronchial perforations with a pulmonary patch.
