A 2-year-old patient presented with a paradichlorobenzene mothball ingestion. The foreign body was removed with a straight Miller blade and a curved Allis clamp. Two weeks following the removal of the mothball, the patient developed solid food dysphagia due to an esophageal stricture. This complication after a short exposure to mothballs is unreported in the literature to date, making this a unique and interesting case. In addition, a comparison of the clinical presentation and treatment of naphthalene and paradichlorobenzene mothballs was reviewed in this article.
