Abstract

AbstractThe 15-year experience in the treatment of colovesical fistulas in three metropolitan hospitals is presented. The 28 patients have a variety of disease processes. A plea for conservative and multiple-staged procedures is made for treatment of acute fistulas. A one-stage procedure should be reserved for well-matured fistulas.
