| Core Tip |
A trachea-esophageal fistula (TEF) may occur as a complication of treatment for definitive chemoradiotherapy for T4 esophageal cancer, particularly when treating with effective novel agents such as carboplatin-paclitaxel which may induce excellent tumor shrinkage. Because of the high morbidity and mortality associated with TEF, treatment intent is commonly switched from curative to palliative. The successful treatment in this case suggests that patients who develop TEF during treatment should carry on completing the planned treatment after discussion of potential benefits and risks. Excellent treatment responses may be obtained and the TEF may resolve completely. |
