Abstract

Tracheoesophageal fistula after blunt trauma is very rare. Typically the patient is a young male driving a car and is thrust onto the steering wheel following sudden deceleration as in a high speed road traffic accident. In our case that victim is a motorcyclist who fell down on his right side and developed such a fistula after 3 days. We report the clinical summary and a brief review of literature.
