Jejunouterine fistula is a rare type of fistulous communication between the small intestine and the genital tract. This fistula may result from pelvic tumours, obstetric or surgical intervention and inflammatory disease. Crosssectional imaging modalities, including ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT), are useful investigations which may demonstrate the site and track of the fistula. Traditional contrast investigations, including hysterosalpingography, are also helpful. Surgical resection of the fistula with primary anastomosis is curative in the majority of cases.
