Abstract
|
|
|
Gastrointestinal (GI) leakages after surgery are significant complications that are associated with high morbidity and mortality. Due to recent technology advancements, interventional management of postoperative GI leakage may be a better alternative than surgical treatments in terms of less invasiveness, decreased mortality, morbidity, and hospital stay. Furthermore, new interventional management techniques are still being developed. We discuss GI fistulas¡¯ clinical and radiological characteristics as well as its interventional management. This study intends to highlight the many GI organ-specific interventional management techniques for the treatment of postoperative GI leakage.
