Bronchoesophageal fistula is a rare complication of Hodgkin's disease. We report a case of Hodgkin's disease presenting with a bronchoesophageal fistula that was successfully treated with bipolar esophageal exclusion and substernal gastric bypass. Direct invasion from mediastinal lymph nodes was the probable cause. Although bronchoesophageal fistula can result as a complication during the course of treatment for Hodgkin's disease, it rarely occurs as the presenting feature. Early recognition and surgical treatment are key aspects of management.
支气管食管瘘是霍奇金病的一种罕见并发症。我们报告一例以支气管食管瘘为表现的霍奇金病病例，该病例通过双极食管闭锁和胸骨后胃旁路术成功治疗。纵隔淋巴结的直接侵犯可能是病因。虽然支气管食管瘘可作为霍奇金病治疗过程中的并发症出现，但很少作为首发特征出现。早期识别和手术治疗是管理的关键方面。
