Enterouterine fistulae are rare and nowadays are most commonly due to pelvic tumours. We review the literature and present the case of a woman who presented with an ileouterine fistula following surgery and radiotherapy for recurrent rectal adenocarcinoma. The presence of tumour within the fistula track may also have been a significant aetiological factor. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an excellent method to demonstrate the site and size of the track and has not, to date, been used to identify such a fistula.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
