| Core Tip |
Gastrocolic fistulas (GFs) are rare, occult and potentially life-threatening complication in Crohn’s disease (CD), which can indicate the active status of CD and predict short-term surgery. Ultrasound is one of the first-line modalities to evaluate CD. Oral agent contrast-enhanced ultrasound may be helpful in reducing the possibility of a missed diagnosis of GF. Despite its significance and severity, only a few cases of GF are described in the current literature. Surgery is the definitive treatment for GF. It is very important to find and manage GF in a timely manner. This paper describes a GF secondary to CD detected by oral agent contrast-enhanced ultrasound when endoscopy and computed tomography missed the diagnosis. |
