Dear editor,Boerhaave syndrome,firstly described by Hermann Boerhaave in 1724,is a rare and life-threatening condition characterized by spontaneous transmural tear of the oesophagus.[1]The early diagnosis of Boerhaave syndrome is extremely important since a delay in the diagnosis can increase the mortality rate.[2]Here,we reported a Boerhaave syndrome patient combined with tension hydropneumothorax.
