    AbstractAn aneurysma of the distal thoracic aorta developed in an 65 year old man. Several weeks later, the man was admitted to hospital because of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. The diagnosis of an aortoesophageal fistula was made not until several endoscopic investigations. The patient died from a major bleeding soon after. The aneurysm proved to be an aneurysma spurium.
