Aortoesophageal Fistula due to double aortic arch and prolonged nasogastric intubation case report and review of the literature
European Journal of Pediatrics, 2006Co-Authors: Floor Van Woerkum, Louis Bont, Felix Haas, Matthias Freund, Sjef Van GestelAbstract:Background: The authors present a patient and describe other cases from the literature which demonstrate that prolonged use of nasogastric tubes can result in life- threatening Aortoesophageal Fistula formation in patients with a double aortic arch. Conclusion: Aortoesophageal Fistula (AEF) is an abnormal communication between the esophagus and the aorta. It can cause massive gastroin- testinal hemorrhage. We present an infant with an operatively corrected double aortic arch, who developed this complication after prolonged nasogastric intubation. Case report

Aortoesophageal Fistula relief of massive hematemesis with an endovascular stent graft
European Journal of Radiology, 2000Co-Authors: Noriyuki Kato, Isao Yada, Hirano Tadanori, Kuniyoshi Tanaka, Fuyuhiko Yasuda, Makoto Iwata, Yoshifumi Kawarada, Kan TakedaAbstract:A 59-year-old man with an esophageal carcinoma developed massive hematemesis due to Aortoesophageal Fistula after irradiation therapy reached 58 Gy. Emergent treatment with an endovascular stent-graft was successfully performed and the patient followed an uneventful course until he died of pneumonia 4.5 months later, which was caused by a tracheoesophageal Fistula. Stent-graft repair is a safe and effective method to treat Aortoesophageal Fistula and may be an alternative to surgical resection.

successful repair of an Aortoesophageal Fistula with aneurysm from esophageal diverticulum
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2002Co-Authors: Fuyuhiko Yasuda, Takatsugu Shimono, Hitoshi Tonouchi, Hideto Shimpo, Isao YadaAbstract:Aortoesophageal Fistula is a rare, frequently fatal, cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding, and there are few reported survivors of it. We report a successful surgical case of Aortoesophageal Fistula associated with an infective thoracic aortic aneurysm. The patient had been diagnosed as having an esophageal diverticulum 8 months before admission. The Aortoesophageal Fistula was completely resected, followed by esophagojejunum anastomosis and patch closure for the entry of the aneurysm and omental coverage to the wall of the descending aorta in one stage. In this case, esophageal diverticulum was diagnosed before the development of an Aortoesophageal Fistula associated with an aneurysm.
