Abstract
The outcome of esophagoscopy for removal of suspected esophageal foreign bodies (EFBs) is dependent on the FB characteristics and the surgeon's experience. This study was conducted to review our experience and highlight challenges in the management of EFBs in a developing country. The value of radiologic signs in FB detection was also evaluated.
