Biliodigestive fistulae. Apropos 2 cases with opposite symptomatology

1997 
: Biliodigestive fistulas are the most frequent internal biliary fistulas and occur when a calculus or neoplasia perforates the wall of the biliary tract of intestine at any point. Symptoms vary given that completely asymptomatic cases have been reported in which the findings of a biliodigestive fistula was completely coincidental, but there are also cases in which the severe clinical conditions at onset require immediate surgery. The Authors report two cases with opposing symptoms and underline the importance of diagnostic imaging in the preoperative analysis. They also underline that a correct therapeutic approach is fundamentally important in these cases.
