Abstract

Bronchoesophageal fistulae (BEF) are difficult to manage conditions. Surgical management in the form of fistulectomy and closure is treatment of choice. Endoscopic treatment has been described as alternative management strategy. The endoscopic techniques are reported, either as case report or small case series. Here, we describe a case study and review the literature.

Keywords: Bronchoesophageal fistula; Fibrin glue; Cyanoacrylate glue.
