摘要

Acquired benign tracheoesophageal fistula is a rare condition and a difficult problem.The rarity and unpredictable presentation of this condition makes the design and setting of randomized prospective trials impossible.Guidelines on this matter are also difficult to establish.Based on a comprehensive evaluation of published literature and their experience,the authors review the etiology and best options for treatment,either surgical and non surgical,according to present knowledge.
