Reviewer:  Tayfun Kermenli
Reviewer's report:
Thanks to all the authors for the successful study. The retrospective nature of the study is a
limitation.  Data of 135 patients with esophageal perforation were analyzed. It would be helpful
if you include the number of patients admitted to your hospital with esophageal foreign body to
the study. In this way, we can reach the information of how many patients presenting with foreign
body have esophageal perforation. Also, esophageal perforations often result in mediastinitis.
What is the rate of mediastinitis in your patients?
