Malignant Tracheoesophageal Fistula
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1984Malignant tracheoesophageal fistula occurs infrequently in patients with esophageal and lung cancer. However, the occurrence of this entity is very distressing for the patient since it leads to rapid deterioration and death due to overwhelming pulmonary infection. A review of cases reported in the recent world literature is presented.

Recurrent Tracheoesophageal Fistula
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1973Abstract Three cases of recurrent tracheoesophageal fistula have been added to the 64 reported in the literature. Recurrence is suspected in patients with a previous repair who develop recurrent pneumonia, asthmatic attacks, or choking spells. The diagnosis can be established by barium swallow roentgenography or, in difficult cases, by staining of the

The American Journal of Surgery, 1960Abstract A case of recurrent tracheoesophageal fistula without associated esophageal stenosis is presented. Corrective surgery was performed twenty-three months after initial repair of a tracheoesophageal fistula. The rarity of the condition, the fact that it is amenable to surgery, and belief that many cases of recurrent pneumonitis and faulty ...

Recurrent Tracheoesophageal Fistula
European Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2013Repair of recurrent tracheoesophageal fistulas (rTEFs) remains a technically challenging endeavor. Although considered the gold standard, open surgical repair is associated with significant morbidity and rates of recurrence. Over the last 40 years, endoscopic techniques have gained popularity and been touted as a safer first line treatment. This review

A tracheoesophageal fistula may occur as an isolated congenital or acquired lesion; however, most cases are associated with esophageal atresia at birth. Although the absolute etiology of these lesions is yet to be determined, much has been learned from embryologic studies and syndromic associations.

Abstract Tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) is a congenital fistula between the trachea and esophagus. Prenatal ultrasound suggests a diagnosis of TEF by findings of polyhydramnios and a small or absent fetal stomach bubble. There are five subtypes of TEF, which are determined by the location of the fistula and presence or absence of ...

Management of Tracheoesophageal Fistula and Tracheoinnominate Fistula
Thoracic Surgery ClinicsFistulization between the tracheobronchial tree and gastrointestinal tract is a challenging clinical situation that leads to life-threatening pulmonary contamination and inadequate nutrition. Operative management requires repair of both airway and esophageal defects with or without tracheal resection and reconstruction to restore a functional airway ...

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1982
The case presented is one in which a coin in the esophagus resulted in a tracheoesophageal fistula. It is of interest not only because the occurrence is unusual, but also because the coin remained in the esophagus for an extraordinarily long period before the condition became symptomatic. The various factors responsible for the delay in getting medical
