Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Gastroenterology
  • Thoracic Surgery

Background:

  • Bronchobiliary fistula is an extremely rare congenital or acquired condition.
  • Gastroesophageal reflux is common in infants, often managed with fundoplication.

Observation:

  • A newborn presented with severe gastroesophageal reflux requiring surgical intervention.
  • Postoperatively, bile was observed in the endotracheal tube, indicating an abnormal connection.

Findings:

  • Diagnostic procedures confirmed a bronchobiliary fistula, an abnormal opening between the airway and biliary system.
  • Surgical division of the fistula via right thoracotomy resulted in a complete recovery.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the importance of considering rare complications after common surgical procedures.
