The diagnosis of aortic graft-enteric fistulae by computed tomography.
A number of techniques have been used to diagnose aortic graft-enteric fistulae. These are reviewed and their value assessed. Three patients are described in whom the diagnosis was correctly made from characteristic appearances seen on a computed tomography (CT) scan. Further experience may show that CT scanning has an important role in the detection of this condition.
