Congenital broncho-esophageal fistula in adults is a rare presentation. This birth defect arises in early fetal life leading to presentation of symptoms immediately after birth. Less than 300 cases in adults have been reported in world literature. We report a case in a 31 year old female who presented with symptoms of aspiration since three months. On evaluation she was found to have congenital broncho-esophageal fistula. She was treated with fistulectomy and made uneventful recovery. |
