S Afr Med J. 1982 May 08; 61(19):717-8.SA

Abstract

Gastrocolic fistula complicating gastric or colonic surgery is a well-recognized entity. It is extremely rare, however, to encounter this condition in patients with benign peptic ulceration who have not undergone previous abdominal surgery. Such a patient was seen recently at Addington Hospital, Durban. The diagnosis was confirmed by means of barium enema examination and subsequent successful surgical resection of the fistula was performed.
