Successful Closure of a Benign Refractory Tracheoesophageal Fistula Using an Over-the-Scope Clip after Failed Esophageal Stent Placement and Surgical Management.

ABSTRACT: Tracheoesophageal fistulas (TEFs) have traditionally been managed surgically, but the endoscopic approach is widely performed as a less invasive alternative. Different closure techniques have been proposed with inconsistent results. An over-the-scope clip (OTSC) appears to be a reasonable option, but long-term results have not been well defined. We report the long-term outcomes of a complex case of successful closure of a benign refractory TEF using an OTSC after failed surgical management and esophageal stent placement.

Efficacy and risk factors of stent placement in the treatment of malignant tracheoesophageal fistula.

Project description:BackgroundDue to the low incidence of malignant tracheoesophageal fistula and the paucity of relevant clinical studies, the benefits of stent implantation have not been well documented. It remains unclear which factors may affect fistula closure.MethodsBetween January 2015 and January 2021, 344 patients who were diagnosed with malignant tracheoesophageal fistula at Zhongda Hospital, Southeast University, were retrospectively enrolled. Demographic and clinical data were collected. Risk factors for fistula closure identified by univariate analysis were further analyzed using multivariable logistic regression.ResultsA total of 288 patients were analyzed in this study, of which 94 were treated conservatively, 170 were treated with an esophageal stent, and 24 were treated with a tracheal stent. Among them, the delta Karnofsky's performance status score values (after 2 weeks/before treatment [p = 0.0028], after 1 month/before treatment [p = 0.0103]) were significantly different between conservative and stent treatment. There was a significant reduction of pneumonia incidence in the stenting group (33.53%) compared to the conservative treatment group (77.05%) after one month (p <0.0001). In addition, the closure of fistulas was influenced by four independent risk factors: 1) treatment methods (p < 0.0001), 2) fistula size (p = 0.0003), 3) preoperative white blood cell count (p = 0.0042), and 4) preoperative Karnofsky's performance status score (p = 0.0001).ConclusionsStent implantation has become an effective method for treating malignant tracheoesophageal fistula compared to conservative treatment. Additionally, stent implantation, smaller fistula size, lower preoperative white blood cell count, and higher preoperative Karnofsky's performance status score suggest a better outcome.

A rare case of acquired benign tracheoesophageal fistula.

Project description:Acquired benign tracheoesophageal fistula (TOF) is a rare medical condition that usually results from trauma, foreign bodies or granulomatous infections. This is an unusual presentation of a male patient with a history of laryngectomy who has had over a period of several years inappropriately and vigorously used valve cleaning brushes to clean tracheal secretions, which has led to the formation of a TOF. Due to the patient's obsessive habit, we could not manage him using conventional surgical methods. Instead, we opted for the placement of a salivary bypass tube, which yielded good results and recovery. To the best of our knowledge, no other case of similar aetiology has been published. We would like to highlight the importance of appropriate patient selection and education prior to performing a tracheoesophageal puncture to avoid developing life-threatening complications as demonstrated in our case report.

Tracheoesophageal fistula characterisation

Project description:Esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula (EA/TEF) are relatively frequently occurring foregut malformations with a largely unknown etiology. EA/TEF is thought to have a strong genetic component and several genes have been proven to be involved in syndromic EA/TEF. However, it is not clear which biological processes or gene networks are disturbed. To gain more insight in the origin of the TEF, we aimed to examine and describe TEF composition using a combination of whole-genome transcription profiling and (immuno-) histochemical stainings. We hypothesized that such characterization of human TEFs provides insight in the molecular and mechanistic etiology of EA/TEF. Data analysis was carried out using BRB-array tools version 4.6.0 (October 2018) in combination with R version 3.5.1 (July 2018). For each probe set, the geometric mean of the hybridization intensities of all samples was calculated. The level of expression of each probe set was determined relative to this geometric mean and logarithmically transformed (on a base 2 scale) to ascribe equal weight to gene-expression levels with similar relative distances to the geometric mean.

Tracheal penetration and tracheoesophageal fistula caused by an esophageal self-expanding metallic stent.

Project description:Tracheal penetration of esophageal self-expanding metallic stents (SEMS) with/without tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) formation is a rare occurrence. We report the case of a 66-year-old female patient with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who had undergone palliative esophageal stenting on three occasions for recurrent esophageal stent obstruction. On evaluation of symptoms of breathing difficulty and aspiration following third esophageal stent placement, tracheal erosion and TEF formation due to the tracheal penetration by esophageal stent were diagnosed. The patient was successfully managed by covered tracheal SEMS placement under flexible bronchoscopy.

An Innovative Single Staged Surgical Repair of Benign Tracheoesophageal Fistula – A Case Report

Project description:Tracheo-oesophageal fistula (TOF) is defined as a pathological connection between the trachea and the oesophagus, leading to a spillover of oral and gastric secretions into the respiratory tract causing aspiration. The cause of TOF may be congenital or acquired. In this case report, a 48 years old female with acquired TOF, has been reported. The patient was on ventilator support for COVID-associated pneumonia and its complication with endotracheal tube for 3 weeks and then tracheostomy was done. Post recovery after weaning from the ventilator, the patient was diagnosed with TOF by bronchoscopy and confirmed by CT and MRI. Surgical closure was performed: the oesophageal defect was sutured in 2 layers and Tracheal wall was isolated and a pedicled strap muscle flap sutured into the defect between the trachea and esophagus. The etiology of TOF may be due to traumatic intubation, cuff pressure, or inflammation. A better knowledge about the cause, site, and size of the TOF will help in prompt surgical procedure and recovery of the patient. This single staged surgical closure can be safely performed in the majority of patients with acquired TOF for optimal outcomes.
