Tuberculous bronchoesophageal fistula presenting as intractable cough.

Intractable cough is one of the debilitating conditions, which warrants immediate investigation to find out the underlying cause. There are numerous causes of intractable cough. We present one such young immunocompromised post renal transplant patient with pulmonary tuberculosis and severe uncontrolled cough due to bronchoesophageal fistula. Bronchoesophageal fistula representing abnormal communication between bronchus and esophagus is an uncommon condition. We emphasize the role of CT in such cases.
