Abstract

Congenital bronchoesophageal fistula is rare and usually has an incidious clinical course. We experienced a case of congenital bronchoesophageal fistula in adult. A 53 years old male patient visited our hospital for respiratory arrest following sudden dyspnea. He had experienced chronic coughing after swallowing and recurrent pneumonia since childhood. we could confirm the bronchoesophageal fistula preoperatively by barium swallow examination and performed right pneumonectomy and repair of the fistula. The postoperative course was uneventful.

저자들은 53세 남자환자에서 성인에서는 매우 드물게 발견되는 선천성 기관지식도루 1례를 수술치험 하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
