  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

 Congenital tracheoesophageal fistula without esophageal atresia(TEF) is a rare anomaly in infancy,and much rare in adults. Only 42 cases of TEF in adulthood have been reported in the previous literature.

 A 51-year-old man with TEF complained of chronic cough attack while he was eating or drinking. Endoscopic examination revealed a tracheoesophageal fistula at T2 vertebral level. The fistula was surgically closed by trans-cervical approach with 2-year's successful postoperative course.

 We analyzed the reported cases and revealed that fistula level of the adults appeared slightly lower than that of the infants.
