[Congenital broncho-esophageal fistula manifesting in adult age]. / Felnóttkorban manifesztálódó veleszületett broncho-oesophagealis sipoly.

Congenital bronchoesophageal fistula manifesting in adulthood is an infrequent disorder. Presenting a successfully treated case, the authors review the clinicopathological features of the disease regarding the data of literature. The long-standing, non-specific respiratory symptoms recurring in the same pulmonary location call the attention to the fistula, which should be verified by esophagography and endoscopy. The adequate treatment consisting of fistulectomy and resection of the destroyed lung parenchyma lead to prompt recovery.
