  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

 Eighteen cases of mistaken ingestion of PTP (press through package or blister package) of drugs were treated in past 9 years, and the results were summarized as follows.

 1) The patient's age were from 39 to 82 (average 63. 9) years. In 2 cases the package pieces were lodged in the hypopharynx and in 16 cases in the esophagus.

 2) In recent years PTP pieces accounted for about 10 percent of all foreign bodies in the esophagus in Japan.

 3) Fluoroscopic examinations with Gastrografin were very useful to detect PTP in the esophagus.

 4) It is concluded that the modification of the packages or the change of the present dispensing system could prevent ingestion of PTP pieces.
