Primary aorto-enteric fistula, a rare connection between the aorta and digestive tract, is uncommon in patients without prior surgery. Early diagnosis and treatment of this condition are crucial for reducing mortality.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Gastroenterology

Background:

  • Aorto-enteric fistula (AEF) is a rare but serious condition, typically occurring secondary to aortic aneurysm repair.
  • Primary AEF, without prior surgical intervention, is exceptionally uncommon.

Observation:

  • The authors present a case of primary aorto-enteric fistula diagnosed and treated early.
  • The patient experienced a favorable outcome following prompt intervention.

Findings:

  • Early diagnosis and appropriate therapeutic strategies are critical for managing AEF.
  • Literature review and case analysis underscore the importance of timely intervention.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the possibility of primary AEF and the success of early management.
