- * The document discusses a specific case where a duodenal stump fistula was effectively treated through sequential percutaneous procedures, including drainage of an abscess, biliary diversion, and embolization of the fistula.
Article Abstract
Duodenal stump insufficiency is an infrequent but potentially devastating complication of upper gastrointestinal surgery. In the era of image-guided interventions, duodenal stump insufficiency is usually treated rather conservatively or with percutaneous interventions than with surgery. Herein, we present a case of a postsurgical duodenal stump fistula successfully treated in a step-by-step manner with percutaneous drainage of a periduodenal abscess-fistula complex, percutaneous transcholecystic biliary drainage for partial biliary diversion and percutaneous transcatheter fistula embolization via the duodenum with n-butyl-cyanoacrylate.
