  • Esophagobronchial Fistula and bronchiectasis arising from traction diverticulosis
    Indian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2010
    Co-Authors: Hidir Esme, Okan Solak, Murat Sezer, Sezgin Yılmaz, Kadir Ilgaz
    Abstract:

    Bronchoesophageal Fistulas associated with traction diverticula are exceptional. We presented a case of traction diverticulum that fistulized to the bronchial tree and resulted in segmentary bronchiectasis. We encountered a successful repair of Esophagobronchial Fistula communicated to esophageal diverticulum. To our knowledge, there is no reported case of traction diverticulosis causing Esophagobronchial Fistula and bronchiectasis in a similar fashion.

  • Esophagobronchial Fistula closure using a novel endoscopic over the scope clip
    The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2012
    Co-Authors: Eugene Zolotarevsky, Yong Kwon, Manjit S Bains, Mark A Schattner
    Abstract:

    We report on a patient who presented with a symptomatic Esophagobronchial Fistula arising from an esophageal diverticulum with recurrent pulmonary infections despite prophylactic antibiotics. She was not an optimal candidate for esophageal stenting, bronchial stenting, or surgery and had refused a gastrostomy tube placement. We performed a successful endoscopic Fistula closure using a novel endoscopic over-the-scope-clip device providing an effective seal of the Fistula with durable resolution of symptoms.

  • Post-tuberculous broncho-esophageal Fistula
    Indian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2007
    Co-Authors: Sumitra Mahapatro, Deepa Kane, Sona Dave, Jagdish Khandeparkar
    Abstract:

    Even though pulmonary tuberculosis is prevalent in India, its complications such as Fistulae requiring surgical intervention have been rare in recent times. Nonsurgical treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis and its sequelae have generally yielded satisfactory result. One rare case of tuberculous Esophagobronchial Fistula in a young adult is reported here. The relevant literature highlighting the anesthetic and surgical management strategies of this pathology is briefly reviewed. Complimentary surgery may be necessary in multidrug resistant cases, or complications thereof and those that fail to respond to antituberculous therapy to achieve complete anatomobiological eradication of the disease.
