Popis:	Iatrogenic esotracheal fistula in pediatric patients is an extremely rare complication, and appears either because of the pressure exercised by the tracheostomy cannula or in patients that are long-term bearers of esogastric tubes, which will cause, together with the cannula, ischemic injuries and necrosis of the tissue. The treatment of these lesions is controversial. The paper presents the management of a pediatric patient with an acquired esotracheal fistula, secondary to a tracheostomy.
