The authors present their experience on surgical treatment of intestinal fistulas based on personal cases treated from 1981 to 1990. The cases are divided into two groups: the first: the first group of patients was treated only surgically (1981-1984); the second group was treated with surgery and artificial nutrition (1984-1990). The mortality rates are much lower in the second group. The conclusion is that is always necessary to associate a form of artificial nutrition to surgery because the percentage of healing is statistically higher.

Abstract
The authors present their experience on surgical treatment of intestinal fistulas based on personal cases treated from 1981 to 1990. The cases are divided into two groups: the first: the first group of patients was treated only surgically (1981-1984); the second group was treated with surgery and artificial nutrition (1984-1990). The mortality rates are much lower in the second group. The conclusion is that is always necessary to associate a form of artificial nutrition to surgery because the percentage of healing is statistically higher.File in questo prodotto:
