Abstract
Broncho-mediastinal fistulaes are a very rare condition, existing only a report of a case related with primary lung cancer. The authors present a clinical case of a white 58-year-old man, with previous history of cigarette smoking and diabetes, with fever, productive cough and progressive dyspnea, with radiological evidence of right inferior lobar pneumonia. We noticed a radiological deterioration, despite the high spectrum antibiotic therapy, so he was submitted to thoracic computerized tomography and broncofibroscopy, which revealed extensive infiltration of the principal and intermediary bronchioles with a broncho-mediastinal-esophagic fistula. The histological exam revealed a pavimentam cellular carcinoma.
