摘要
Bronchocutaneous fistula (BCF) is a pathologic communication between the bronchus and the subcutaneous tissue. Its diagnosis is made mainly by chest imaging, and bronchoscopy can help in accurately localizing the fistula. Treatment options include conservative and non-conservative approaches. We report a case of iatrogenic bronchocutaneous fistula occurring after traumatic chest tube placement in an 81-year-old man, treated efficiently with conservative management.
