A 4-year-old boy presented with sudden respiratory distress after blowout of a defective tire that he bit. Computed tomography scan showed right pneumothorax and bilateral orbital emphysema. A linear rupture has been detected in the cervical esophagus in esophagoscopy. Stamm gastrostomy and tube thoracostomy were performed, and broad-spectrum antibiotics have been introduced.
