Early simultaneous esophagopleural and bronchopleural fistula after right pneumonectomy.

Published: February 2018

Background: Esophagopleural and bronchopleural fistulas represent a rare, but life-threatening complication after lung resections, most often after a right pneumonectomy.

Case Study: A 64 years old woman was indicated for right pulmectomy for local recurrence of initially stage IIB lung cancer treated by lower lobectomy. On the postoperative day 34, an esophagopleurobronchial fistula occurred. Further course required thoracostomy with closure of the bronchial stump and vacuum-assisted closure therapy and two-phase esophagectomy with 6 weeks interval to the esophageal reconstruction. Patient represents 2 years of disease-free survival with good functional results.

Conclusion: The therapy of esophagopleural and bronchopleural fistula is long-term and complicated, requiring a multidisciplinary approach and several basic principles must be adhered to the management including treatment of infection and prevention of sepsis, local treatment of the fistula and pleural empyema, and adequate ventilation and nutritive care.
