Tracheo-innominate fistula is a rare complication in patients with tracheostomy, which is most commonly corrected surgically with a high mortality rate. We report the first case of a patient diagnosed with Cantú Syndrome who presented a tracheo-innominate fistula that was managed through the placement of an endovascular covered stent with good long-term results.
