Abstract

Intramural esophageal dissection (IED) is an uncommon entity characterized by mucosal rupture creating a false lumen. It usually develops following endoscopy or in old patients with bleeding tendencies and spontaneous presentation possesses diagnostic dilemma. Managing partial IED is simpler than circumferential IED. Due to rarity of presentation, management is not standardized. We report circumferential IED in a young patient and challenges faced during diagnosis and management.
