Bronchoesophageal fistulas associated with traction diverticula are exceptional. We presented a case of traction diverticulum that fistulized to the bronchial tree and resulted in segmentary bronchiectasis.

To our knowledge, there is no reported case of traction diverticulosis causing esophagobronchial fistula and bronchiectasis in a similar fashion.
