    Upper gastrointestinal bleeding due to primary aortoesophageal fistula is a rare clinical condition burdened with high mortality rate. However, the outcomes are closely related to the level of clinical awareness, the complementary and multidisciplinary approach during the diagnostic workup, and the selected treatment option. We present an atypical case of an aneurysm of the thoracoabdominal aorta complicated with primary aortoesophageal fistula (AEF). A 55‐year‐old male with no previous diseases, presented with prolonged and intense back pain and upper gastrointestinal bleeding. The gastroscopy detected an unusual culprit lesion in the distal esophagus resembling an esophageal wall defect, and the computed tomography revealed an aneurysm of the thoracoabdominal aorta, remarkable surrounding hematoma, and active contrast extravasation. Despite the urgent surgical repair, a lethal outcome occurred. AEF patients require high clinical awareness and complementary multidisciplinary approach in order to provide a rapid diagnosis and optimal treatment.

    Louis-Bar Syndrome is a synonym for a very rare complex neurodegenerative disorder ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T). This is an autosomal recessive inherited disease that encompasses abnormalities in the cerebellum, multisystem degeneration, immunodeficiency, increased risk for malignancy and consecutive respiratory insufficiency. Most of the patients are radiosensitive and any exposing to ionization may lead to progression of the disease. Potential risks from anesthesia, mechanical ventilation, and postoperative complications in these patients have been insufficiently discussed in the literature. We present a successful anesthetic and respiratory management with one-lung ventilation in a patient with Louis-Bar Syndrome who underwent video assisted thoracoscopy (VATS) for recurrent pleural effusion.
