Extent of bladder and ureteric involvement and urologic management in patients with enterovesical fistulas.
Urology 1991 December
A retrospective review of hospital charts from 1978-1989 identified 21 patients with acquired enterovesical fistulas. Nine patients with fistulas secondary to benign inflammatory processes required extensive bladder resection; 2 of these had ureteric involvement. Of the 9 patients requiring extensive bladder resection, necrotic and severely inflamed bladder was excised and the bladder was closed in a multilayered fashion with absorbable sutures. An omental flap was used when possible. Postoperative bladder drainage was maintained for seven to fourteen days. Ureteral involvement was managed by stenting in 1 case and ureteroureterostomy in another. No postoperative bladder leaks or recurrent fistulas were reported. Extensive inflammatory involvement of the bladder wall may necessitate a large vesical resection. Excision of diseased bladder tissue, multilayered closure, and the use of omental interposition may help reduce postoperative complications and the risk of recurrence. Associated ureteral involvement may be present in these patients and requires urologic management.
