Gastric Fistula

Gastric Fistula

Gastric fistula is a medical condition in which an abnormal connection forms between the stomach and another organ or structure. The fistula can be between the stomach and the esophagus, small intestine, colon, or even skin. The abnormal connection can be caused by a variety of diseases and medical conditions, including cancer, Crohn’s disease, diverticulitis, and trauma. Gastric fistulas can lead to a variety of complications, including malnutrition, dehydration, and infection. Symptoms can range from mild to severe and may include abdominal pain, vomiting, fever, and diarrhoea. Treatment for a gastric fistula typically involves surgery to close the abnormal connection. Other treatments may include antibiotics, nutrition support, and medications to control symptoms. In order to diagnose a gastric fistula, a doctor may perform a physical examination, order imaging tests such as an X-ray or CT scan, and perform an endoscopy. An endoscopy is a procedure in which a thin, flexible tube with a camera is inserted into the stomach to look for any abnormalities. After the diagnosis is made, a treatment plan can be developed. Surgery is the most common treatment for a gastric fistula.
