description | Reconfiguration of the alimentary tract with the Roux-en-Y has been utilized in a wide variety of contexts since its first description by Swiss physician César Roux. We present a novel and unique application of the Roux-en-Y whereby a chronically discharging cutaneous fistula originating at a retroperitoneal mature teratoma within the root of the mesentery was diverted enterically via a cystojejunostomy and the fistula tract excised, providing a resolution of symptoms. The location of the tumour in the root of the mesentery and the involvement of major mesenteric vessels made a radical resection of the tumour technically impossible but due to the distressing symptoms caused by the fistula made diversion of the fistula an excellent treatment option. |
