We present the case of a young woman with severe odynophagia of acute onset. The digestive endoscopy and esophageal biopsy confirmed an acute ischemic esophagitis. After repeated interviews, a causal association with prior ingestion of doxycycline capsule used for acne treatment was found.

Keywords : acute esophagitis; doxycycline; acne.
