Abstract
Objective: Esophagorespiratory fistulas are complications of malignant esophageal tumours and bronchogenic cancer, and they are difficult to manage. The efficacy of polyurethane-covered nitinol stents for management of malignant and benign esophagorespiratory fistulas were analyzed prospectively. Patients and Methods: Twenty one patients (16 males-76%) with esophagorespiratory fistulas were treated with nitinol stents. The lesions were located in the proximal (n = 2), middle (n = 16) and distal (n = 3) esophagus.
