Abstract:
Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) and vaping have gained popularity in the last two to five years as an alternative way of consuming nicotine, as well as tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), particularly in the younger population. Vaping/e-cigarettes heat nicotine/THC and other chemical components to create the vapor to be inhaled, which increases the risk of mucosal infection and esophagitis. Although tobacco smoking has been extensively studied and known to affect the oral cavity and esophagus, the effect of vaping is yet to be well-studied. We report a case of odynophagia secondary to esophageal candidiasis, herpes simplex virus (HSV) esophagitis, and reflux esophagitis associated with vaping.
摘要:
在过去的两到五年中,电子烟(电子烟)和vaping已成为消费尼古丁的替代方式,以及四氢大麻酚(THC),特别是在年轻人口中。电子烟/电子烟加热尼古丁/THC和其他化学成分,以产生要吸入的蒸气,这增加了粘膜感染和食管炎的风险。尽管吸烟已被广泛研究,并且已知会影响口腔和食道,vaping的影响尚未得到充分研究。我们报告了一例继发于食道念珠菌病的食痛,单纯疱疹病毒(HSV)食管炎,和与电子烟相关的反流性食管炎。
