Surgical Treatment for Graft-Enteric Fistula / 日本心臓血管外科学会雑誌

We experienced 4 cases of graft-enteric fistulas in which 2 cases were died due to intestinal hemorrhage and the other 2 cases are survived by the surgical treatment of infected graft excision with extra-anatomical bypass or anatomical bypass grafting with omental wrap. The most important thing is to prevent this late complications at the first operation by wrapping of graft with the surrounding tissues or omentum.
