Abstract

AbstractEsophageal fistulas, whether congenital or acquired, require a high index of suspicion for early diagnosis. Only simple investigative tools are required to confirm the diagnosis. Management requires individualization and is most successful in those patients treated early, before gross local contamination and generalized sepsis ensue.
