On the basis of examination of 117 children with chemical burns of the oral cavity and esophagus the authors came to a conclusion that it was urgent esophagoscopy only that could most exactly diagnoze the availability and size of the esophagus burn. The complex of diagnostic and curative measures is thought by the authors to consist in abundant washing of the esophagus and stomach, struggle against shock, desintoxication by the method of forced diuresis, correction of the water-electrolyte and acid-alkaline balance, general and antibiotics therapy, early beginning of normal diet.
