Fistulization between the tracheobronchial tree and gastrointestinal tract is a challenging clinical situation that leads to life-threatening pulmonary contamination and inadequate nutrition. Operative management requires repair of both airway and esophageal defects with or without tracheal resection and reconstruction to restore a functional airway and maintain gastrointestinal continuity. Tracheoinnominate fistula is a rare communication between the airway and innominate artery that can result in fatal hemorrhage.

We report an angiographic image of a 58-year-old woman with profuse bleeding from a tracheo-innominate artery fistula.
