Celo-intestinal fistulae complicating advanced extra-uterine pregnancy
1Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital, Zaria, Nigeria.
Abstract:
Multiple celo-intestinal fistulae with the passage of fetal bones per rectum as a rare complication of advanced extra-uterine pregnancy is presented. This was further complicated by a recent intra-uterine pregnancy which culminated in obstructed labor and uterine rupture. The subsequent peritonitis was of etiological significance in the formation of the peritoneo- or celo-intestinal fistulae.
