Management of aortoesophageal fistula & pseudoaneurysm induced by impacted chicken bone

Abstract

Although foreign body ingestion and food bolus obstruction are frequently encountered gastrointestinal emergencies, the management of sharp objects in the oesophagus remains highly challenging due to the risk of perforation. We present the case of a 44-year-old patient with an impacted chicken bone penetrating into the aortic arch.
