Abstract
Secondary aortobronchial or aorto-enteral fistulas have an incidence of 0.36-4% and are a rare but life-threatening complication after endovascular aorta reconstruction. Due to the rarity of the disease and the heterogeneity of the patients (age, risk profile, localization) individual-specific solutions are necessary. The primary symptomatic, differential diagnosis and individual therapy concepts will be presented and discussed based of five case reports (2 aorto-esophageal fistulas, 2 aortobronchial fistulas and 1 aorto-duodenal fistula).Entities:
