Cholecystocolonic fistula diagnosed with CT-intravenous cholangiography.
Cholecystoenteric fistulas are often not diagnosed preoperatively and delineation of fistula can have an influence on surgical planning. We report a case of cholecystocolonic fistula diagnosed preoperatively using CT-i.v. cholangiography and review the published reports.
