Abstract

Fistula is a severe complication following esophageal surgery. The fibrin glue injection is an easy, safe and effective procedure and it may eliminate the need of difficult reoperations in the treatment of fistula formation. We report a successful case with an esophageal fistula treated with fibrin glue injection.
