Closure of a Gastropleural Fistula Using Advanced Endoscopy

Gastropleural fistulas are rare complications with significant mortality and morbidity. There are limited reports on the successful management of gastropleural fistulas with advanced endoscopic procedures. The following case of a 75-year-old woman with a history of recurrent pseudomyxoma peritonei secondary to ruptured low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm status post cytoreductive surgery highlights the successful treatment of a gastropleural fistula with endoscopic suturing.
