Aortoesophageal fistula (AEF) is a rare but fatal complication caused by foreign body ingestion. Aortic replacement and endovascular stent graft are the common repair surgeries. The materials to repair an aortic defect in AEF are typically homograft or allograft, but the use of an autologous pericardium patch is rarely reported. Here we reported a patient with AEF and severe mediastinal infection induced by chicken bone ingestion. In this case, the autologous pericardium patch was used as the repair material.
主动脉食管瘘(AEF)是一种由异物吞食引起的罕见但致命的并发症。主动脉置换和血管内支架植入是常见的修复手术。修复AEF主动脉缺损的材料通常是同种异体移植物或异种异体移植物,但使用自体心包补片的报道很少。在此,我们报告了一例因吞食鸡骨导致AEF并伴有严重纵隔感染的患者。在该病例中,使用了自体心包补片作为修复材料。
