A 65-year-old female with a 5-day history of left iliac fossa pain, fevers and diarrhoea was seen in a metropolitan hospital. Initial computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis characterized a left tubular adnexal structure with an air fluid level and normal-appearing colon and was reported as pyosalpingitis. Worsening sepsis despite antibiotics prompted further imaging where thickening of the sigmoid colon was noted, and the provisional diagnosis was revised to complicated acute diverticulitis with perforation into the left fallopian tube\/ovary. This was managed with a laparoscopic anterior resection and en bloc left salpingo-oopherectomy, and was followed by an uneventful recovery. The presence of a gas-containing collection remains a sensitive imaging sign for the presence of an enteric fistula and a high index of suspicion should be maintained when this is encountered.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjac573","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,18]],"date-time":"2022-12-18T14:36:45Z","timestamp":1671374205000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["A rare case of colo-salpingeal fistula complicating acute sigmoid diverticulitis"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2022","author":[{"given":"Aishwarya","family":"Jangam","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Logan Hospital General Surgery, , Brisbane 4207 , Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christopher","family":"Gillespie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Queen Elizabeth II Hospital General Surgery, , Brisbane 4108 , Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"2022121814363676700_ref1","first-page":"107","article-title":"Epidemiology and risk factors for diverticular disease","volume":"89","author":"Alessendra","year":"2018","journal-title":"Acta Biomed"},{"key":"2022121814363676700_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"19","DOI":"10.1007\/s13244-016-0532-3","article-title":"Diverticulitis: a comprehensive review with usual and unusual complications","volume":"8","author":"Onur","year":"2017","journal-title":"Insights Imaging"},{"key":"2022121814363676700_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"963","DOI":"10.2214\/AJR.08.1655","article-title":"CT features of adnexal involvement in patients with diverticulitis","volume":"192","author":"Panghaal","year":"2009","journal-title":"Am J Roentgenol"},{"key":"2022121814363676700_ref4","first-page":"103","article-title":"Bi-salpingo colonic fistula report of both fallopian tubes fistulizing with sigmoid diverticulum with literature review","volume":"19","author":"Al Sinani","year":"2012","journal-title":"JKAU: Med Sci"},{"key":"2022121814363676700_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1357","DOI":"10.1007\/s00384-010-1122-3","article-title":"Pneumosalpynx caused by colosalpingeal fistula secondary to acute colonic diverticulitis","volume":"26","author":"Ruiz-Tovar","year":"2011","journal-title":"Int J Colorectal Dis"},{"key":"2022121814363676700_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"858","DOI":"10.1053\/crad.2001.0774","article-title":"Enterotubal fistulae secondary to tuberculosis: report of three cases and review of literature","volume":"56","author":"Kumar","year":"2001","journal-title":"Clin Radiol"},{"key":"2022121814363676700_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1097\/00007611-198104000-00044","article-title":"Colo-tubo-ovarian fistula as complication of pelvic inflammatory disease","volume":"74","author":"Simstein","year":"1981","journal-title":"South Med J"},{"key":"2022121814363676700_ref8","first-page":"139","article-title":"Acquired salpingo-enteric fistula\u2014a case report","volume":"14","author":"Ogbeide","year":"2010","journal-title":"Afr J Reprod Health"},{"key":"2022121814363676700_ref9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"107","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02617308","article-title":"Report of two cases of sigmoidal fistula complicating tubo-ovarian disease","volume":"9","author":"Gigiel","year":"1966","journal-title":"Dis Colon Rectum"}],"container-title":["Journal of Surgical Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article-pdf\/2022\/12\/rjac573\/48077005\/rjac573.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"syndication"},{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article-pdf\/2022\/12\/rjac573\/48077005\/rjac573.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,18]],"date-time":"2022-12-18T14:36:54Z","timestamp":1671374214000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article\/doi\/10.1093\/jscr\/rjac573\/6927244"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,1]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"12","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/jscr\/rjac573","relation":{},"ISSN":["2042-8812"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2042-8812","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published-other":{"date-parts":[[2022,12]]},"published":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,1]]},"article-number":"rjac573"}}
