Abstract

A 17 year-old female patient with chief complaints of pneumaturia and fecaluria was found to have s vesicocolonic fistula. A transurethral attempt to catheterize the suspect tract, which was on the left posterior wall of the bladder, and radiography, following injection of dye through the catheter, proved that the fistu1ous tract was communicating with the sigmoid colon. Excision of the fistulous tract corrected successfully the pathology. Histopathologic findings were of chronic non-specific colitis.
