INTRODUCTION: Postoperative enterocutaneous fistulae could constitute a challenge when they occur following an abdominal surgery. Astute application of correct principles in its management is essential for good outcomes.
METHODS: A retrospective review of records of patients with enterocutaneous fistulas managed non-operatively was done. Clinical assessment, anatomic and physiologic classification of fistula, fluid resuscitation, electrolyte correction, parenteral/enteral nutrition, antibiotic use and fistula effluent monitoring, formed the basis of management.
RESULTS: (4/14)Four out of 14 patients with enterocutaneous fistulae were managed exclusively non-operatively. Their ages ranged between 34 and 63 years. Mean age 46years. All four fistulae occurred postoperatively. Laparatomy for ectopic pregnancy, bowel obstruction constituted the primary surgery. There were two high output cases and two low output cases. Initial parenteral nutrition was employed in two cases while enterals were used solely in two cases. Fistula closure was achieved in all 4 cases at durations ranging from 7 to 16 days, a mean time of 12.5 days.
CONCLUSION: Non-operative approach to management for postoperative enterocutaneous fistulas was successful in these cases.
