abstract="Near drowning in a bathtub occurred to a 3 years 7 months old boy. He was resuscitated at home by the firemen before admission in hospital, where he presented coma, convulsions and a massive distension of the abdomen. Surgical procedure revealed a 3 cm long perforation on the smaller curvature, which was repaired. This aspect and the localisation of the rupture resemble those related to resuscitation procedures: oxygenotherapy by nasal catheter, external cardiac massage, mouth-to-mouth ventilation. The stomach is filled with air because inadequate position of the catheter. It also may be related to relaxation of crico-pharyngeal sphincter during anesthesia or coma.<p /><p>Language: fr</p>",
