Overview
Boerhaave syndrome is a spontaneous longitudinal perforation of the esophagus due to a sudden rise in intraesophageal pressure combined with negative intrathoracic pressure. It is commonly associated with the consumption of excessive food and/or alcohol.
Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology of BHS is as follows:[1][2][3][4][3][1][5][6]
- Boerhaave syndrome is a spontaneous perforation of the esophagus due to a sudden rise in intraesophageal pressure combined with negative intrathoracic pressure (eg, severe straining, vomiting or seizures) as a result of neuromuscular incoordination resulting in a longitudinal esophageal perforation.
- Boerhaave syndrome is commonly associated with the consumption of excessive food and/or alcohol.
- The most common anatomical location of the esophageal perforation in Boerhaave syndrome is at the left posterolateral wall of the distal intrathoracic esophagus (the distal third of the esophagus is inherently weaker than the rest of the esophagus) and 2-3 cm before the stomach. However, the esophageal perforation in Boerhaave syndrome can also occur in the cervical or intra-abdominal esophagus.
