Patients who have experienced severe caustic injury to the gastrointestinal tract are at high risk of esophageal strictures. Early endoscopy is usually recommended systematically in children after caustic ingestion to assess the severity of the initial digestive lesions. The aim of this study was to determine the predictive value of clinical symptoms and ingested-substance types as markers of severe esophagogastric lesions and to define indications for endoscopy.
