GASTRO-BRONCHIAL FISTULA AS A RARE COMPLICATION IN THE LONG-TERM FOLLOW-UP OF OPERATED CASE WITH ESOPHAGEAL CARCINOMA

Year 2013, Volume: 10 Issue: 1, - , 01.03.2013

Abstract

The development of a fistula between the gastric tube and the bronchial system represents a very rare but potentially catastrophic complication after intrathoracic esophagogastrostomy for esophageal carcinoma. A 67-years-old male patient, who underwent Ivor-Lewis surgery due to esophageal carcinoma six years ago, had persistence of complaints especially to increased cough immediately after food intake. Keywords: Esophageal Carcinoma, gastro-bronchial fistula, complication.
