  • Title: Duodenocaval fistula: case report and literature review.
    Author: Rheudasil JM, Chuang VP, Amerson JR.
    Journal: Am Surg; 1988 Mar; 54(3):169-71. PubMed ID: 3348551.
    Abstract:
    Duodenocaval fistulae are rare but may well be the source of gastrointestinal hemorrhage with associated sepsis in patients undergoing surgery and subsequently receiving radiation to the right upper abdomen. Management of these fistulae may be challenging. Diagnosis usually requires a high index of suspicion, particularly in post irradiated patients.
