Abstract

Abstract:

Esophageal tuberculosis is an inflammatory granulomatous lesion of esophageal wall caused by mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. Seriously, it can lead to esophageal stenosis, esophageal fistula, and even esophageal perforation. It is very rare in clinic, so it is easy to be misdiagnosed as esophageal cancer. This article reports a case of esophageal tuberculosis combined with esophageal fistula, provides the experiences of diagnosis and treatment of esophageal tuberculosis combined with esophageal fistula, and improves clinicians' understanding on its diagnostic methods.

Key words: Esophageal tuberculosis, Esophageal fistula

摘要： 食管结核是由结核杆菌感染导致的食管壁炎性肉芽肿性病变，严重时可导致食管狭窄、食管瘘甚至食管穿孔，由于临床十分少见，易被误诊为食管癌。本文报道食管结核合并食管瘘１例，提供食管结核合并食管瘘在诊治方面的经验，提高各临床医师对本病的诊断方法的认识。
