A case report on multidisciplinary approach towards management of gastrojejunocolic fistula secondary to adenocarcinoma of the colon
This case highlights the successful management of a gastrojejunocolic fistula secondary to adenocarcinoma of colon through three stage surgery; diverting stoma, en bloc resection, colostomy reversal surgery along with chemotherapy. Despite post-operative complications, including a gastro-cutaneous fistula and prolapsed colostomy, the patient responded well to treatment. Multidisciplinary approaches and careful monitoring are essential in resource-limited settings for improved patient outcomes.
