Coccidioides immitis Cervical Lymphadenitis Complicated by Esophageal Fistula
Coccidioidomycosis (valley fever) is caused by the dimorphic fungi Coccidioides immitis or Coccidioides posadasii. Most infections are asymptomatic or result in self-limited pneumonia; extrapulmonary dissemination via either hematogenous or lymphatic spread is rare. Here, we present a case of cervical C. immitis lymphadenitis that resulted in fistula formation to the esophagus via mediastinal e...
متن کاملEmergent endovascular stent grafting for saccular arch aneurysm complicated by aorto-esophageal fistula.
Aneurysms of aortic arch are rare but amenable to endovascular therapy. Arch aneurysm presenting with aorto-esophageal fistula and hematemesis is a feared, but relatively rare complication. The extrapolation of the safety and rapidity of emergent endovascular repair for bleeding arch aneurysms has been infrequently reported. A bovine arch anatomy confers distinct advantages for endovascular the...

Masahiro Kikuchi established the clinical entity of SNL, which is pathologically characterized as histiocytic inflammatory lymphadenitis without the infiltration of neutrophils.

متن کاملMultidrug-Resistant Tuberculous Mediastinal Lymphadenitis, with an Esophagomediastinal Fistula, Mimicking an Esophageal Submucosal Tumor
Mediastinal tuberculous lymphadenitis rarely mimics esophageal submucosal tumor, particularly in the case of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). Herein, we report the case of a 61-year-old woman who visited a local hospital complaining of odynophagia. An initial esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed an esophageal submucosal tumor, and subsequent chest computed tomography showed subcarinal ...
متن کاملCONGENITAL BRONCHO-ESOPHAGEAL FISTULA: A CASE REPORT
Congenital broncho-esophageal fistula (BEF) is a rare anomaly usually detected in adulthood. In one of the latest reviews of this anomaly, no more than 150 cases were found in the world literature. We report our experience with a 49 year old male patient referring with a classic presentation of chronic cough and choking episodes upon liquid intake. Broncho-esophageal fistula was confirmed b...
