Abstract An aorto-esophageal fistula (AEF) is a rare yet life-threatening cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. We report our experience with open surgical management of two cases of AEF. Both cases presented with almost identical presentations: hematemesis and hemodynamic instability. The aorta in the first patient was normal; the defect was small and was repaired with a Dacron patch. The second patient had an aneurysmal aorta, which was replaced with a Dacron graft. Both cases were performed under partial bypass. The esophageal rent in both patients was debrided, primarily closed and buttressed with a vascularized intercostal pedicle. Nonavailability of endovascular personnel and equipment along with hemodynamic instability of the patient influenced our surgical strategy. Long-term follow-up of these patients is necessary to analyze the outcomes of our surgical repair.

Arterial Stenting

The carotid-esophageal fistula is a rare and serious complication of the metallic esophageal prosthesis. A high index of suspicion is required for early diagnosis and treatment, decreasing the morbidity and mortality rate of this severe complication. We report a case of a 4-year-old boy presenting severe upper gastrointestinal bleeding due to a carotid-esophageal fistula, secondary to deployment of an esophageal metallic prosthesis for treatment of a recurrent stenosis. The carotid pseudo-aneurism was successfully treated with stents and coils. Although endovascular treatment is a safe and effective option, arterial stenting in children needs further studies with long-term follow-up.
