[Gastroduodenal complications after the ingestion of hydrochloric acid. One case (author's transl)]. 1978

P Warter, and M Barth, and A Jacquillard

The ingestion of a caustic acid resulted in retractile fibrosis of 2/3 of the stomach with a secondary duodenal fistula. The antro-pyloro-duodenal circuit was re-established at around the 3rd after ingestion. However, the duodenal fistula caused the formation of encysted pelvic abscesses which were difficult to drain and satisfactorily treat. The clinical course stretched over a period of 4 years.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007412	Intestinal Fistula	An abnormal anatomical passage between the INTESTINE, and another segment of the intestine or other organs. External intestinal fistula is connected to the SKIN (enterocutaneous fistula). Internal intestinal fistula can be connected to a number of organs, such as STOMACH (gastrocolic fistula), the BILIARY TRACT (cholecystoduodenal fistula), or the URINARY BLADDER of the URINARY TRACT (colovesical fistula). Risk factors include inflammatory processes, cancer, radiation treatment, and surgical misadventures (MEDICAL ERRORS).
