Abstract
Gastropleural fistula is an uncommon finding (1). Gastropleural fistulae have been reported after pulmonary resection (1), perforated paraesophageal hernia (2), perforated malignant gastric ulcer at the fundus, and gastric bypass operation for morbid obesity. We present a case of gastropleural fistula that resulted acutely from intractable postoperative nausea and vomiting after ambulatory knee arthroscopic surgery under general anesthesia.
