[Fistulography. Results of 126 examinations (author's transl)]

The authors describe the results obtained in a series of 126 patients examined by fistulography. This investigation should be conducted systematically after operative treatment of any type of fistula. The procedure involves perfusion of a water-soluble iodized contrast medium at low pressure, using a balloon sound to ensure that there are no leaks. The results supply the general or orthopedic surgeon with the information necessary for deciding the operative procedure to be used.
