title: [Fistulisation of a tubercular adenopathy in the oesophagus. About a paucisymptomatic form].
abstract: The authors present the case of a cervico-mediastinal mass which disappeared spontaneously. The clinical presentation and the image of a fistula during the oesophagoscopy are in favour of the fistulisation of a tubercular adenopathy in the oesophagus. This pathology is rare. This observation is original by the delay of diagnosis due to a dysphagie summarizing the clinical signs and the spontaneously favorable evolution of the fistula.
