Abstract

Gastrobronchial fistula is a very rare condition with only 27 reported cases. Previous gastro-oesophageal surgery, subphrenic abscess, and gastric ulcers are the most commonly reported causes. We are reporting two recent cases of gastrobronchial fistula that presented to us. A review of the literature discussing possible causes, investigation and management of this condition is also provided.
