Fistula Intestinal Tubular

Intestinal tubular fistula: causes, symptoms and treatment

A tubular intestinal fistula (sometimes also called a canal intestinal fistula) is a condition in which a narrow tunnel (fistula) forms between the intestinal wall and surrounding tissue, such as the skin or other organs. This can occur anywhere in the intestines, but most often fistulas form in the rectal area.

The causes of tubular intestinal fistula can be different. One of the most common factors is infection or inflammation in the intestinal area, which leads to the formation of an abscess (a collection of pus-filled fluid). If the abscess is not treated, it can rupture into the intestines, creating a fistula.

Symptoms of a tubular intestinal fistula may vary depending on where it occurs. Some of these may include pain in the intestines, blood or pus in the stool, a foul odor during bowel movements, intermittent discharge of pus or blood from the anus, and discomfort in the rectal area.

Treatment for tubular intestinal fistula usually involves surgery. In most cases, before surgery is performed, it is necessary to treat the infection or inflammation that may have caused the fistula to form. Surgical treatment may include removal of the fistula and restoration of intestinal integrity.

Overall, an intestinal tubular fistula is a serious condition that can lead to further complications if not treated promptly. If you notice any symptoms of a tubular intestinal fistula, you should immediately consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.



A fistula is a pathological anastomosis between a hollow organ and the surface of the body. Intestinal fistulas can occur as a result of wounds, ulcers, peptic ulcers, and intestinal operations. Usually there is a pathological communication between the rectum and the skin, but there are also abnormal places of fistulas - in the mouth, tongue
