Abstract Summary
A 66-year-old man developed a rare high-output colo-cutaneous fistula after appendectomy, causing 600-1000 mL daily fecal drainage through his surgical incision. When conservative treatment failed, laparoscopic repair with bowel resection successfully resolved the complication, demonstrating the need for prompt surgical intervention in severe cases.
