BACKGROUND: Aortogastric-tube fistula is a rare but fatal complication of esophagectomy, most commonly induced by anastomotic leakage and peptic ulcer formation. METHODS: We report a rare case of a 55-year-old male patient presenting with an aortogastric-tube fistula located in the gastric conduit due to a recurrence of esophageal carcinoma. RESULTS: The patient was treated successfully with Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR) followed by esophageal stent placement to relieve dysphagia. CONCLUSION: Although aortogastric-tube fistula is an extremely rare entity, the advent of esophageal cancer surgery, has led to the recognition of aortogastric-tube fistula with increasing frequency in the literature. Herein, we provide a comprehensive review of the literature, focusing on the pathophysiology, time interval between surgery and presentation, type of treatment and survival of reported cases with post-esophagectomy aortogastric-tube fistula.
