  • Title: Aortoesophageal fistula secondary to thoracic aortic aneurysm repair.
    Author: Graham AN, McGuigan JA, Curry RC.
    Journal: J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino); 1993 Oct; 34(5):381-3. PubMed ID: 8282742.
    Abstract:
    The development of a fistula between the aorta and the oesophagus after graft replacement of the thoracic aorta is extremely rare. We report a case which occurred 3 years and 7 months after repair of an aneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta and review the previous reports of this uniformly fatal condition.
