| Sumario: | Objective: To determine the cause and high-risk factors for the development of intestinal fistulas (IFs) after ultrasound-guided microwave ablation (MA) of abdominopelvic lesions, and to identify effective prophylactic and therapeutic actions.Methods: Clinical data were collected from patients with an IF after ultrasound-guided MA of abdominopelvic lesions in our hospital from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2018. The cause, diagnosis, and treatment of IFs in these patients were analyzed.Results: Among 8,969 patients who underwent ultrasound-guided MA of abdominopelvic lesions, eight patients developed IF after MA, Seven patients were discharged after being cured and one died.Conclusion: Abdominopelvic lesions are close to the intestines, so histories of surgery, radiotherapy, and abdominopelvic infection are high-risk factors for IF development after MA of these lesions. Surgical treatment should be provided as soon as an IF is identified. |
