  • Title: Intramural hematoma of the esophagus: a complication of carbon tetrachloride intoxication with acute renal failure.
    Author: Tschöpe W, Czygan P, Ritz E, Kommerell B, Deppermann D.
    Journal: Clin Nephrol; 1976 Dec; 6(6):526-8. PubMed ID: 1087596.
    Abstract:
    Following a period of prolonged severe vomiting, an intramural esophageal hematoma could be demonstrated by endoscopy and by X-ray in a 21 year old patient with hepatic and renal failure after exposure to carbon tetrachloride. The hematoma resolved spontaneously. The intramural hematoma is thought to have developed from a microdissection of the esophageal wall in the presence of a hemorrhagic diathesis.
