Fistulate

/ˈfɪs.tʃu.leɪt/ verb

Definition

To form or create a fistula; to develop or cause an abnormal opening or passage in body tissue.

Etymology

From Latin fistula + -ate (verb suffix). This relatively recent medical coinage uses the classical root to describe the action of fistula formation.

Kelly Says

When infected wounds don't heal properly, tissue can fistulate in unexpected directions—a dentist might discover a tooth infection has created an underground tunnel to the patient's cheek skin, which then needs to be traced like a medical mystery.
