This paper highlights the importance of an early diagnosis and its correlation to better outcomes for a rare pathology with high mortality.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical presentation:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 67-year-old female presenting with unexplored vomiting and hypertension, presented to the ER with a septic shock. The patient's clinical deterioration prompted emergency exploration, revealing a dilated esophagus with a 3-cm perforation. Despite surgical intervention, including suturing with a T-tube and esophageal exclusion, the patient succumbed to multiorgan failure.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Boerhaave's syndrome, triggered by forceful vomiting, presents diverse clinical manifestations, making accurate diagnosis challenging. The characteristic triad of vomiting, pain, and subcutaneous emphysema is observed in a minority of cases, often overshadowed by acute respiratory distress. Diagnostic modalities include chest X-rays, contrast esophagography, and computed tomography, aiding in visualizing contrast leakage and confirming the diagnosis.<\/jats:p>\n                    <jats:p>The choice of surgical technique, ranging from esophageal suturing to esophagectomy, depends on the duration between rupture and surgery initiation. In this case, a bipolar esophageal exclusion was performed due to the patient's critical condition.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Boerhaave's syndrome demands consideration in patients presenting with thoracic pain and vomiting, particularly in those with a pathological esophagus. Early diagnosis and surgical intervention remain pivotal in improving outcomes. Identification of hydro-pneumothorax in radiographic studies should prompt consideration of spontaneous esophageal rupture, highlighting the need for heightened clinical suspicion in nonspecific clinical scenarios.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Highlights<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2024.109482","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,11]],"date-time":"2024-03-11T18:56:05Z","timestamp":1710183365000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Septic shock revealing boerhaave's syndrome a case report"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"117","author":[{"given":"A.","family":"Sebai","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"R.","family":"Elaifia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S.","family":"Atri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Ben Brahim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Haddad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J.M.","family":"Kacem","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-28-20260423","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1002\/rcr2.160","article-title":"Boerhaave's syndrome - tension hydropneumothorax and rapidly developing hydropneumothorax: two radiographic clues in one case","volume":"4","author":"Nguyen Ho,","year":"2016","journal-title":"Respirol.
