Cholecystoduodenal Fistula With and Without Gallstone Ileus: A Case Series

Observative and descriptive study of 10 patients, which were diagnosed with a Cholecystoduodenal fistula, All electronic medical records were retrospectively reviewed.

A cholecystoenteric fistula is an uncommon complication of gallstone disease, although most studies in the English literature concern biliary-enteric fistulas. The aim of this study was to present a case series of patients with a cholecystoduodenal fistula (CDF), with or without gallstone ileus, along with the surgical outcomes.

From 2015 to 2018, 3245 consecutive patients underwent cholecystectomy for gallbladder disease at our institution, of whom 10 were diagnosed with a CDF. All electronic medical records were retrospectively reviewed.
