In the second patient cure was spontaneous after a peri-duodenal abscess from a perforated post-bulbar duodenal ulcer discharged into the hepatic flexure of the colon.

Three cases of spontaneous duodeno-colic fistula.

Three cases of duodeno-colic fistula are presented, where a communication was demonstrated between the anterior aspect of the third part of the duodenum and the transverse colon at the point of mesocolic attachment. At operation the fistulae were found to be some 6 to 9 cm in length, and histological examination showed a well marked muscular layer with an intact epithelium. In view of the absen...
