Abstract
A frankfurter has a non-circular cross-section which may be triangular, square or rectangular. In the event that the frankfurter is improperly swallowed, air spaces are formed between the straight walls of the frankfurter and the circular wall of the esophagus. The air spaces allow the passage of air thereby preventing choking and facilitate removal by medical personnel.
