Introduction: Persistent gastrocutaneous fistula (GCF) remains a rare but known complication after gastrostomy tube removal. In children, the gold standard of treatment is surgical through an open fistula takedown. Adults, on the other hand, have a much smaller incidence rate, creating a more difficult dilemma in management.

Article Synopsis
- This case highlights a rare complication involving delayed leakage of stomach contents into the skin after a gastrostomy tube was closed during abdominoplasty, occurring two years post-surgery.
- The patient had to undergo emergency surgery to address the issue, ultimately leading to a full recovery.
- Proper assessment of the patient's surgical history and prior imaging was essential for diagnosis and treatment planning, suggesting that closing gastrostomy sites during related surgeries may prevent similar future complications.

Background: Thoracic anastomotic fistula (TAF) is a severe postoperative complication of oesophagectomy, and its occurrence coupled with a thoracic gastrocutaneous fistula (TGCF) and tracheostenosis is very unusual and may lead to a fatal consequence.
Case Presentation: We describe a case of an old female diagnosed with mid-oesophageal carcinoma, who presented with a TAF after oesophagectomy, which was healed by an effective treatment, while a severe TGCF and tracheostenosis appeared one month postoperation. The complications were detected by gastroscopy, barium oesophagogram and thoracic computed tomography (CT).
