Management of secondary aorto-enteric fistulae: a multi-centre study.

In this study there was no difference in all-cause survival in patients who had OAR or EVAR as first line treatment for SAEF. In the acute setting, alongside broad-spectrum antimicrobial therapy, EVAR can be considered as an initial treatment for patients with SAEF, as a primary treatment or a bridge to definitive OAR.
