A Adenipekun et al. Afr J Med Med Sci. 2005 Jun.

Abstract

A case of gastrointestinal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with entero-cutaneous fistula formation following incomplete tumor resection. Patient was managed conservatively with chemotherapy viz Cyclophos phomide, Adriamycin, Vincristin and prednisolone with total healing of the abdominal wound and closure of the fistula. A case is made for conservative management of entero-cutaneous fistula complicating non- Hodgkin's lymphoma before any radical treatment is contemplated.
