H-type Tracheoesophageal Fistula: A Rare Cause of Cough and Dysphagia in Adults.

Tracheoesophageal fistula without associated esophageal atresia (H-type) is a rare congenital anomaly, accounting for about 4% of esophageal malformations. However, it can occasionally be seen in adults with chronic cough and respiratory infections. We present a 38-year-old woman with a new diagnosis of H-type tracheoesophageal fistula.
