[Reno-sigmoid fistula in a tuberculous pelvic ectopic kidney]

Abstract

Renocolic fistulas are rare lesions, generally involving the ascending and descending colon. The authors report a case of reno-sigmoid fistula occurring in a tuberculous pelvic ectopic kidney. Nephrectomy with segmental sigmoid resection was completed by antituberculous treatment for 9 months. The patient presents a good general condition with normal renal function and normal intestinal transit with a follow-up of 19 months.
