We describe the case of a 60-year-old woman who presented with thoracic pain followed by hematemesis. Aortoesophageal fistula was diagnosed. Double aortic and esophageal protheses were placed with good clinical outcome. After 15 days, the patient presented migration of the esophageal prothesis and a further endoscopic examination was performed. A fishbone was visualized in the fistula orifice.
