“…In 1993, Melvin et al described a gunshot renocolic fistula [10]. Similar cases were reported by Herbert et al and by Abdalizz et al, who included in their study two distinct episodes of renocolic fistula caused by firearms [6,11].…”

Extracorporeal lithotripsy (ESWL) is one of the most common urological procedures. Among its possible complications, renal parenchymal lesions are rare (approximately 7%). This is a case report of a renocolic fistula after ESWL. It is a very rare complication and without descriptions in the literature of association with ESWL. Because it is a rare lesion, there is no standardized treatment or data that makes it possible to determine the best conduct. The present case required a surgical approach to correct the fistula. It was possible to preserve the affected kidney, which is even rarer in the medical literature.

“…The first case of renocolic fistula was described by Hippocrates in 460 BC These fistulas rarely are found in clinical practice, and renocolic fistulas are the most common among reno-alimentary fistulas [6]. Due to its rarity, there are few studies with a significant sample of patients.…”

“…These fistulae could be secondary to chronic inflammation caused by nonspecific infection (xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis) or specific infection like in urogenital tuberculosis, radiation therapy, urolithiasis [2,3] or a foreign body [4,5] (ureteral stents, nephrostomy…). Fistulae can also form, resulting of a traumatism [6,7] that can either be blunt or open (stab wounds or ballistic trauma), or a tumoral process involving either the digestive tract [8] (colonic adenocarcinomas…) or the urinary system [10] (renal cell carcinoma, upper tract transitional cell carcinoma). Some cases of iatrogenic fistulae after the placement of a nephrostomy tube have been reported [5].…”

Background Uro-digestive fistulae are uncommon. They frequently manifest themselves with mild symptoms but can, in some cases, be life-threatening leading to septic shock and death. The diagnosis is facilitated by radiological explorations and their management remains mainly surgical. Case presentation We report the case of a diabetic 62-year-old patient who developed a renocolic fistula revealed by a digestive symptomatology, following a partial nephrectomy that was surgically treated with positive overall outcome. Conclusion The development of a fistula between the colon and the kidney is very rare. Although the outcome was positive at the price of total nephrectomy and partial colectomy, the diagnosis and management of the fistula were challenging. Urologists should keep in mind the possibility of a fistula developing in the aftermath of a partial nephrectomy.

“…Nephrocolic fistulae are the most common renodigestive fistulae and are typically the result of abdominal trauma or surgery, renal calculi, Crohn's disease, malignancy, or tuberculosis but rarely of thermal injury after RCC treatment. [5][6][7][8] Few reports described these fistulae resulting from percutaneous radiofrequency ablation and cryoablative techniques. 9 While applying cryotherapy for tumor ablation, the ice ball must extend at least 3 mm beyond the outer tumor margin to result in complete tumor cell death.…”

Use of an Over-the-Scope Clip for Closure of an Iatrogenic Nephrocolic Fistula Resulting From Cryoablative Therapy for Renal Cell Cancer of a Transplanted Renal Graft

Although uncommon, cryoablation of tumors can result in collateral damage to adjacent organs resulting in difficult-to-treat perforation and fistulization. Full-thickness closure of defects has been described with the use of over-the-scope clips. We describe the case of a 56-year-old woman who underwent cryoablation of renal cell carcinoma of her transplanted kidney that was complicated by cryoinjury to her sigmoid colon with subsequent nephrocolic fistula and abscess formation resistant to conservative treatment. We report a case of successful abscess drainage and use of over-the-scope clip for closure of an iatrogenic renal graft nephrocolic fistula.
