A benign tracheoesophageal fistula occurring as a complication of Barrett's ulcerative esophagitis is described. Surgical control of gastroesophageal reflux resulted in healing of the fistula, obviating the need for a resective procedure or esophageal exclusion. Although Barrett's ulcer has been reported as a cause of acquired esophagorespiratory fistula, to our knowledge, the important role of reflux control in the management of this difficult problem has not been discussed.
本文描述了一种作为巴雷特溃疡性食管炎并发症出现的良性气管食管瘘。胃食管反流的手术控制使瘘管愈合，从而无需进行切除手术或食管旷置术。尽管巴雷特溃疡已被报道为后天性食管气管瘘的一个病因，但据我们所知，尚未讨论反流控制在处理这一难题中的重要作用。
