A rare upper gastrointestinal system bleeding case: Aortoesophageal fistula

Year 2014, Volume: 31 Issue: 1, 51 - 53, 05.06.2014

Abstract

Aortoesophageal fistula is a rare condition with fatal prognosis. It is one of the life-threatining causes of massive upper gastrointestinal bleeding. With this case report, we will discuss an instance of a fatal aortoesophageal fistula in a patient to whom was implanted a stent due to an aorta aneurysm. In endoscopic examination blood clot on the mouth of the fistula was visualized.
