Özet

Fistulation between the trachea and an infected mucocele arising from an excluded retained esophageal segment is an interesting and unusual complication of esophageal bypass surgery. We present such a case in which there was also malignant transformation in the cyst wall, manifested by invasive adenocarcinoma and widespread high-grade glandular dysplasia. © 2001 by The Society of Thoracic Surgeons.
