An elderly lady was admitted to the hospital with severe dysphagia after ingesting a large fruit seed. She underwent urgent esophagoscopy under general anesthesia to remove the impacted seed. The procedure was successful and the seed was removed, allowing the patient to recover smoothly. The impaction of food or foreign objects in the esophagus is more common in elderly women, especially over age 76, and can often require endoscopy or surgery for removal. Previous esophageal strictures may increase the risk of recurrence.
