Abstract

Use of 3-dimensional tomographic reconstruction in evaluating colovesical fistulas is discussed. We compared 3-dimensional computerized tomographic (CT) images of colovesical fistulas to conventional CT images. Successful surgical repair was facilitated by preoperative radiographic data. Three-dimensional CT reconstruction provides superior spacial detail and can clarify complex anatomical relationships preoperatively.
