Core Tip |
Enteroatmospheric fistula (EAF) is a catastrophic complication that can occur after open abdomen. EAFs cause severe body fluid loss, hypercatabolism, and wound complications, leading to adverse clinical outcomes. Small and low-output EAFs might be managed by “reduction and isolation” strategies with vacuum assisted closed dressings to achieve spontaneous healing, while large and high-output EAFs should be resected when the patients are clinically stable. Infection control and management of the enteric effluent are key elements in achieving favorable clinical conditions which should precede definite surgery for EAFs. |
