A traumatic enterorenal fistula

Briana Goddard et al. Urol Case Rep. .

Abstract

Enterorenal fistulas can arise from various spontaneous and traumatic etiologies. While nephrectomy is frequently the treatment of choice, renal sparing techniques have been described. We report a case of an enterorenal fistula as a complication of penetrating trauma. The fistula was managed conservatively with only ureteral stenting.
