Abstract

ABSTRACT Complete esophageal obstruction (CEO) is a rare phenomenon usually observed after receiving head and neck radiation. Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (ZES) is typically associated with minimal esophageal morbidity because of advancements in antisecretory medications. There are currently no documented reports of CEO in patients with ZES. Although surgeries are available for the treatment of CEO, there is no established method for endoscopic lumen restoration, given its rarity. This case documents potential sequala of modern-day patients with ZES.
