Bronchial-esophageal fistula associated with gastroesophageal reflux. An. Fac. med. [online]. 2019, vol.80, n.3, pp.350-353. ISSN 1025-5583.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15381/anales.803.16859.

We present a clinical case of bronchoesophageal fistula associated with gastroesophageal reflux in a 76-year old man with a diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux and hernia. He comes for episodes of cough of 1 year of evolution without response to treatments. We will demonstrate the usefulness of the esophagographic study as a diagnostic element. The clinical, diagnostic, therapeutic aspects and the probably sequence of development of this complication are briefly reviewed.

Keywords : Esophageal Fistula; Bronquial Fistula; Gastroesophageal Reflux; Barium; Radiography.
