    Abstract:
    Aorto-enteric fistulas: about two cases. In this paper, on the occurrence of two new cases records, we resume the current data of the publications about aorto-enteric fistulas. We emphasize the symptomatology inasmuch the diagnostic approaches of primary and secondary aorto-enteric fistulas. The different ways of the operative treatment are discussed. The conclusion is extra-anatomic bypass associated with graft excision is currently the best therapeutic choice in case of secondary fistulas. About primary fistulas, the treatment is still controversial immediately by extra-anatomic bypass or arterial graft in situ and closure of the digestive fistula.
