    Author: Layton TR, DiMarco RF, Pellegrini RV.
    Journal: J Trauma; 1980 Sep; 20(9):802-5. PubMed ID: 7411671.
    Abstract:
    A patient with a tracheoesophageal fistula from blunt chest trauma is presented and the literature is reviewed. A common pathophysiologic factor is the involvement of a young male in a deceleration injury. Early surgical intervention with division of the fistula and repair of the tracheal and esophageal defects is recommended.
