This article discusses the case of a 63-year-old woman who presented with dysphagia 27 years after she received radiation therapy for Hodgkin disease. She was diagnosed with a large tracheoesophageal fistula and poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus. The authors describe, for the first time, successful surgical management of this complex clinical condition.
