Aorto-enteric fistulae pose a challenging negative outcome of aortic intervention. Treatment involves graft excision, and recently, more enthusiasm has met in situ revascularization over extra-anatomic bypass. This has been traditionally performed through the transperitoneal approach via a midline abdominal incision. We propose an exclusively total retroperitoneal technique in managing this complication with regard to both the vascular and alimentary tract technical aspects of the procedure. This involves exclusion and bypass of the affected segment followed by en-mass resection of the affected segment with the duodenum, and finally, bowel anastomosis. We present a case of an aorto-enteric fistulae illustrating classical radiological findings treated via a flank incision and retroperitoneal technique after a temporizing endovascular stent placement at an outside institution. Peri-operative course was uneventful. The retroperitoneal approach has been shown to be equivalent to its transperitoneal counterpart in many aspects of treating aortic disease. It has also been shown to be superior in others, including but not limited to, faster return of bowel function, decreased respiratory complications, less blood loss and shorter length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital. We recommend adding this approach to every vascular surgeons operative armamentarium when it comes to managing aorto-enteric fistulae. This might be especially helpful in avoiding re-operative planes, thus minimizing blood loss and iatrogenic bowel injury, better aortic exposure, and adequate access to the duodenum.

Introduction. Meckel?s diverticulum (MD) is the most prevalent congenital anomaly of small intestine. It develops due to the incomplete obliteration of omphalomesenterict duct which normally undergoes obliteration during the seventh week of gestation. In the majority of cases MD is asymptomatic but it may cause various complications, such as bleeding, intestinal obstruction and inflammation. Cases of umbilical sinuses, fistulas and neoplasms related with MD have been reported, but extremely rare gangrene due to its axial torsion, especially in children, as is the case of our patients. Case Outline. An 11-year-old boy admitted to hospital due to 24 hours epigastric pain, vomiting and malaise. After a complete physical examination, and appropriate pre-surgical laboratory and radiographic tests, surgical exploration was performed with a midline abdominal incision. On 60th cm proximal to the ileocecal valve we found a long and in a narrow based ganrenous MD with axial torsion and fibrotic cord extending from the tip of MD to the ileal mesentery. Surrounding ileum had normal appearance. A demarcation and subsequent resection of MD and the surrounding ileum was performed with endto- end ileal anastomosis. Postoperative recovery was successful and the patient was discharged after six days. Conclusion. Axial torsion of MD is presented with non-specific abdominal symptoms and difficult preoperative diagnosis. The choice of diagnosis and therapy is surgical exploration and resection of MD.
