Atrial arrhythmias and acute pericarditis triggered by bleach ingestion-associated oesophageal perforation: a case report.

This case highlights a rare presentation of atrial arrhythmias and acute pericarditis caused by corrosive oesophageal injury due to bleach ingestion. The effective management of such cases necessitates a co-ordinated approach, involving the collaboration of cardiothoracic surgeons, cardiologists, and critical care specialists, with the aim of enhancing patient outcomes and mitigating the life-threatening risks associated with oesophageal perforation and cardiac arrhythmias. Furthermore, this case underscores the imperative for further research to better understand the relationship between traumatic acute pericarditis and atrial arrhythmias, offering the potential for improved patient care in these intricate clinical scenarios.
