ABSTRACT
Gastropleural fistula is a rare complication of prior lung surgery, gastric ulcer, trauma and malignancy. A 62 year old female patient who had received surgical repair of a perforated gastric wall 10 years prior, underwent open pleural decortication. At 4 days after surgery, food residuums were noticed at the chest bottles. Hence, an emergency esophagogram was done. The esophagogram revealed a gastropleural fistula. The patient received a total gastrectomy, intra-abdominal diaphragmatic repair and massive thoracic saline irrigation through a previous thoracic wound. The patient was discharged 11 days after surgery without other morbidity.
