Surgical repair of primary aorto-jejunal fistula associated with non-specific inflammatory abdominal aortic aneurysm.
A 28-year-old man with aorto-jejunal fistula associated with primary saccular abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) was effectively treated by resection and replacement with polytetraflouroethylene graft. The aetiology was suspected to be a non-specific aortitis, a rare cause of aorto-enteric fistula.
