Bronchoesophageal Fistula in the Setting of Tuberculosis Infection
J Gastrointest Surg.
2017 Dec.
Abstract
Acquired bronchoesophageal fistula can have their origin in a benign or malign cause. Benign bronchoesophageal fistula is rare and often associated with nonspecific symptoms that may delay the correct diagnosis. The authors present a case of a bronchoesophageal fistula in a 57-year-old woman caused by tuberculosis infection.
Keywords: Bronchoesophageal fistula; Tuberculosis infection.
