Fatal Aortoesophageal Fistula Complicating Placement of a 20-mm Lumen-Apposing Metal Stent for Refractory Esophagojejunal Anastomotic Stricture

We report the case of a patient with a benign refractory esophagojejunal anastomotic stricture for which a 20-mm lumen-apposing metal stent was placed, resulting in a fatal aortoenteric fistula. We report this case to alert others to this potential complication of LAMS placement for esophageal stric...

description We report the case of a patient with a benign refractory esophagojejunal anastomotic stricture for which a 20-mm lumen-apposing metal stent was placed, resulting in a fatal aortoenteric fistula. We report this case to alert others to this potential complication of LAMS placement for esophageal strictures and recommend caution when using the 20-mm LAMS in similar settings.
