Gastrocolic fistula in Bartter's syndrome caused by indometacin: report of two cases

The authors report two cases of gastrocolic fistula caused by chronic therapy with indometacin in patients with Bartter's syndrome followed at the outpatients clinic of "Instituto da Criança do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo", Brazil. The diagnosis was suggested by a barium meal that showed a gastrocolic fistula between the greater curvature of the stomach and the transverse colon. Treatment was surgical in the both cases.
