Bronchial Fistula Associated with Sunitinib in a Patient Previously Treated with Radiation Therapy

Abstract

This is a rare case of a bronchial perforation leading to a fistula associated with sunitinib treatment after mediastinal radiation therapy. Clinicians may consider strict follow-up of patients with proximal lung metastases treated with sunitinib (CT scan and, if appropriate, placement of an endobronchial stent).
