Postoperative gastroduodenal fistulas generally develop after peptic ulcer surgery. Gastroduodenal fistula following cancer surgery has not been reported previously.
In this paper, we present the development of a gasto-duodenal fistula in a patient with gastric cancer and treated by surgey and chemoradiotherapy.
