Abstract

The surgeon managing a patient with Crohn's disease should be aware of the possibility of a gastrocolic fistula being present. Readily available roentgenographic contrast studies, coupled with endoscopy, will undoubtedly provide all the necessary information with which to undertake a safe one stage en bloc resection of the diseased segments.
