Percutaneous drainage offers a promising alternative to surgical intervention in the management of complicated diverticular disease with abscess formation. Recent case studies and literature reviews support its efficacy in achieving abscess resolution and reducing the need for surgery. However, careful patient selection, technical proficiency, and multidisciplinary management are critical to optimizing outcomes. As the body of evidence grows, percutaneous drainage is likely to play an increasingly important role in the therapeutic arsenal against complicated diverticular disease; however, the risk of complications, particularly fistula formation, must be carefully considered. Our case presents a rare incident of a colo-cutaneous fistula occurring after CT-guided percutaneous drainage of a pericolic abscess secondary to perforated sigmoid diverticulitis that failed medical management. The patient ultimately underwent Hartmann\u2019s procedure where the diseased sigmoid colon, adhered small bowel, and fistula tract were excised with an end colostomy creation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjae674","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,26]],"date-time":"2024-12-26T16:13:31Z","timestamp":1735229611000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Colo-cutaneous fistula in the setting of complicated sigmoid diverticulitis previously managed with percutaneous drainage: a case report"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2025","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-2468-9363","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Natalia","family":"Correa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"DeWitt Daughtry Family Department of Surgery, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine , 1611 NW 12th Ave, Miami, FL 33136 ,","place":["United States"]},{"name":"University of Miami Miller School of Medicine , 1306 Stanford Drive, Suite 1210, Coral Gables, FL 33146 ,","place":["United States"]},{"name":"University of Miami Holy Cross Hospital General Surgery Residency Program , 1900 E Commercial Blvd, Ste 201, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33308 ,","place":["United States"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"2024122616132092400_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"648","DOI":"10.1097\/DCR.0000000000000624","article-title":"Diverticular abscess managed with long-term definitive nonoperative intent is safe","volume":"59","author":"Garfinkle","year":"2016","journal-title":"Dis Colon Rectum"},{"key":"2024122616132092400_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"219","DOI":"10.1007\/s11605-019-04396-6","article-title":"Do all patients require resection after successful drainage of diverticular abscesses?","volume":"24","author":"Aquina","year":"2020","journal-title":"J Gastrointest Surg"},{"key":"2024122616132092400_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"622","DOI":"10.1097\/DCR.0b013e31828545e3","article-title":"Percutaneous drainage of colonic diverticular abscess","volume":"56","author":"Gaertner","year":"2013","journal-title":"Dis Colon Rectum"},{"key":"2024122616132092400_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"703","DOI":"10.1016\/j.amjsurg.2014.05.018","article-title":"Predictors of postoperative outcomes for patients with diverticular abscess initially treated with percutaneous drainage","volume":"209","author":"Elagili","year":"2015","journal-title":"Am J Surg"},{"key":"2024122616132092400_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"297","DOI":"10.1308\/003588408X285928","article-title":"The long-term results of percutaneous drainage of diverticular abscess","volume":"90","author":"Singh","year":"2008","journal-title":"Ann R Coll Surg Engl"},{"key":"2024122616132092400_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"100180","DOI":"10.1016\/j.sipas.2023.100180","article-title":"Short- and long-term outcomes in the nonoperative treatment of diverticular abscesses","volume":"13","author":"Bachelani","year":"2023","journal-title":"Surg Practice Sci"},{"key":"2024122616132092400_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"728","DOI":"10.1097\/DCR.0000000000001679","article-title":"Prepared on behalf of the clinical practice guidelines Committee of the American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons.
