  • Title: Appendico-colic fistula complicating appendicitis in cystic fibrosis.
    Author: Morris-Stiff GJ, Islam KA.
    Journal: BMJ Case Rep; 2010 Sep 07; 2010():. PubMed ID: 22778186.
    Abstract:
    The case of a boy with cystic fibrosis who presented with an unusual complication of appendicitis is reported. Delayed presentation, with complications of appendicitis such as perforation and abscess formation, is not uncommon in cystic fibrosis; however, this case represents the first report of an isolated appendico-colic fistula following appendicitis in association with cystic fibrosis.
