Postemetic rupture of the esophagus is an intrathoracic catastrophe which is universally fatal if untreated immediately. We have experienced one case of Boerhaave`s syndrome at the Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgery Yonsei University College of Medicine. He was 56 years old male who complained severe chest-pain, dyspnea with sudden vomiting after alcohol. Esophagogram showed barium leakage through rupture site on lower esophagus into left thoracic cavity. He had taken repair of the rupture site of lower esophagus and wrapping it with the body of the stomach wall because of relatively clean rupture margin even though 48 hours following the rupture. He has been uneventful in post-operative courses & he discharged with good conditions.
