Core Tip |
Computed tomography (CT) fistulography is seldom performed on patients with insufficient evidence of fistula; however, it provides more accurate anatomical details than X-ray fistulography and abdominal CT. A 35-year-old man with swelling and purulence over the abdominal wall was admitted to our hospital under the diagnosis of cellulitis. Serial examinations suggested a possible enterocutaneous fistula (ECF); thus, we performed CT fistulography. Images showed the subcutaneous contrast agent tracked down through the muscle and peritoneum into the cecum, confirming a cecocutaneous fistula. CT fistulography may rule out ECF in patients presenting with cellulitis if examinations are suggestive. |
