Primary malignant tumors of the trachea are very rare with the incidence of less than two million people year, and only ten percent of them are adenoid cystic carcinomas. Eighty percent of all tracheal tumors are malignant. Diagnosis is usually late because the symptoms mimic other conditions such as asthma.

We assessed strong (96%) alcohol-induced severe or minute lesions in stomach, tongue-esophagus-stomach-duodenum lesions, and sphincter pressure (lower esophageal and pyloric) upon administration intragastrically (at 1 h) or intra(per)-orally at the tongue, and swallowed (at 1, 5, 15, 30 min; and 1, 2, 24 h). The assessment also included combined administrations (intra(per)-oral at the tongue, swallowed and intragastric (at 1 h)).

Methods: Because we assume esophagogastric fistulas represent a particular NO-system disability, we attempt to identify the benefits of anti-ulcer stable gastric pentadecapeptide BPC 157, which was in trials for ulcerative colitis and currently for multiple sclerosis, in rats with esophagocutaneous fistulas. Previously, BPC 157 therapies have promoted the healing of intestinal anastomosis and fistulas, and esophagitis and gastric lesions, along with rescued sphincter function.
Esophagocutaneous fistulas are a failure of the NO-system, due to NO-synthase blockage by the NOS-blocker L-NAME consequently counteracted by l-arginine and gastric pentadecapeptide BPC 157 (l-arginine
