AB - Enterocutaneous and enteroatmospheric fistulas are the most challenging complications of abdominal sepsis
to deal with a high mortality. This is even more challenging with a stoma in an open abdomen. In the setting
of chronic granulomatous inflammation like abdominal tuberculosis or inflammatory bowel disease,
recovery is prolonged and management involves multidisciplinary care. We present a rare case that was a
complication of tuberculous peritonitis.
