Abstract:
There is one reported case of a pancreatoduodenal fistula that was managed using combined coil embolization and fibrin glue after the failure of other methods. Herein, we document this case to highlight the value of coil embolization and fibrin glue as surgical alternatives for fistula treatment. We present a case of a 39-year-old female patient who has a known case of Crohn's disease (CD) and presented with an enterocutaneous fistula (ECF) after her most recent surgery. With the failure of conservative approaches and as she refused any surgical interventions, fibrin glue injection and coiling were used. As a conclusion, embolization may work well as a surgical management alternative due to its simplicity.
