[Duodeno-colic fistula due to cancer of the right colon].

The author presents a case of duodeno-colic fistula revealing carcinoma of the right hepatic flexure showing the difficulty of surgery. A right hemi-colectomy enlarged to the duodenum and pancreas is the ideal operation from a curative point of view, but rarely possible owing to the age of the patient and the constitutional background. The risk of breakdown of duodenal sutures, which is sometimes technically difficult after colonic removal, is far from negligible. The results of by-pass operations, with or without exclusion of the fistula, are poor and uncertain.

Laparoscopic ultrasound in abdominal surgery.

Laparoscopic ultrasound combines the advantages of diagnostic laparoscopy with peroperative ultrasonography. This new technique allows visualization of deep structures that are not palpable. The technical aspects of this technique and its applications in abdominal surgery are described. The main indications are the search for common bile duct stones during a laparoscopic cholecystectomy and the assessment of the spread of abdominal cancers. The information obtained from laparoscopic ultrasound can influence the therapeutic management.
