Abstract

We conducted a retrospective review of 16 patients who were diagnosed with enterovesical fistula in our hospital between January 2000 and July 2013. The patient's median age was 74 years old and 4 were female. Most of the chief complaints were pneumaturia and fecaluria. There was a vesicosigmoidal fistula in 12 patients, an ileovesical fistula in 2, and a rectovesical fistula in 2. The main underlying cause was diverticulitis in 9 patients and a sigmoid colon carcinoma in 3. Diagnoses were made based on the findings of cystoscopy, barium enema, abdominal computed tomography and so on. Treatment varied in each case depending on the etiology and the patient's condition. The procedure was mostly open surgery, but laparoscopic sigmoidectomy was performed preserving the bladder in the two most recent cases.
