Clinical images - a quarterly column: early presentation of h-type Tracheoesophageal Fistula.
The Ochsner journal, 2013Co-Authors: Michael Perry, John Eick, Kyle Jakob, Vincent R. Adolph, Omotola UwaifoAbstract:H-type or isolated Tracheoesophageal Fistula occurs along the spectrum of esophageal malformations. Five types of esophageal malformation are described in the literature.1 The most common type is esophageal atresia with a distal Tracheoesophageal Fistula (75%). H-type Tracheoesophageal Fistulas occur without associated esophageal atresia and represent approximately 5% of all cases.

“Rendez-vous” over-the-scope endoclipping for Tracheoesophageal Fistula: case report and review of the literature
European Surgery, 2015Co-Authors: A. Aiolfi, D. Bona, C. Ceriani, G. Saino, L. BonavinaAbstract:Background Management of Tracheoesophageal Fistula is challenging and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Malignancy and cuff-related tracheal decubitus are the most common causes of Tracheoesophageal Fistula. Open surgical division and closure of the Fistula orifices with or without tissue interposition has represented the standard of care for decades. Endoscopic management of Tracheoesophageal Fistula is still debated and only a few cases have been described in the literature. Methods A 57-year-old male patient with chronic Tracheoesophageal Fistula occurring 1 year after esophagectomy for squamous-cell carcinoma was treated with a “rendez-vous” over the scope endoclipping technique using the OVESCO ^R system. The pertinent literature on the topic has been reviewed and compared to the present case. Results The patient was discharged home on postoperative day 6 on a semisolid diet and remains asymptomatic at 5 month follow-up. Conclusions The OVESCO ^R system seems to be safe and effective in the treatment of small Tracheoesophageal Fistula.

Tracheoesophageal Fistula in AIDS: stent versus primary repair.
AIDS patient care and STDs, 1996Co-Authors: Patrick G. Rosario, Je Song, William Wittenborn, Ferdinand ChristianAbstract:Tracheoesophageal Fistula arising secondary to Mycobacterium tuberculous infection in AIDS patients is extremely rare. We describe a case with a Fistula lesion that initially failed to close using a four-drug antituberculosis regimen. The original lesion closed following placement of an esophageal stent. However, the stent migrated, causing an iatrogenic Tracheoesophageal Fistula that needed surgical repair. Tracheoesophageal Fistula (TEF) is an uncommon clinical condition, most frequently arising as a sequelae to esophageal malignancy. Iatrogenic injury to the membraneous trachea secondary to cuffed endotracheal or tracheostomy tubes in the presence of an in-dwelling nasogastric tube and corrosive burns, accounts for most of the remainder of occurring Fistulas. Infections such as candidiasis, syphilis, and tuberculosis are also known to cause this condition.1 We report stent migration with perforation and subsequent TEF formation in an HIV-positive patient who originally had stent placement for a tubercu...
