Benign Duodenocolic Fistula Due to Duodenal Diverticulum: Report of Two Cases
Abstract
Two cases of benign duodenocolic fistula resulting from duodenal diverticula are presented. In both cases, the diverticula were located on the outer border of the second portion of the duodenum. The upper gastrointestinal study is the easiest and most useful examination for diagnosis. Hypotonic duodenography and the barium enema complement the upper series and serve to differentiate benign from malignant fistulas.
