The formation of vesical diverticulitis with stones is associated with bladder wall fragility, and these patients in particular had a medical history of trauma, surgery, prostate hyperplasia, and neurogenic bladder.…”

Vesicocutaneous fistula due to vesical diverticulitis with stones: A case report and literature review

Introduction We encountered an extremely rare case of a vesicocutaneous fistula due to vesical diverticulitis with stones. Case presentation A 78‐year‐old male patient presented to our department with complaints of suppurative discharge in the suprapubic area. Computed tomography revealed an enlarged prostate, a vesical diverticulum with stones located on the ventral side, and an aberrant connection between the anterior bladder wall and the external surface of the skin. The patient was diagnosed with a vesicocutaneous fistula due to vesical diverticulitis and was successfully treated with a multidisciplinary approach including vesical diverticulectomy with stone removal and nonviable tissue debridement. The patient continues to receive regular outpatient follow‐ups with urinary catheter changes. Conclusion Vesicocutaneous fistulas due to vesical diverticulitis with stones are extremely rare. We should be aware that a vesical diverticulum with stones located on the ventral side might pose a high‐risk factor for the formation of a vesicocutaneous fistula in elderly patients.

“…Vesicocutaneous fistula formation is an extremely rare complication, which in cases B and C could have been associated with their significant history of abdominal surgeries and subsequent defect in the abdominal wall and weak musculature. 13,14 Endoscopic laser fragmentation via the Mitrofanoff stoma in these two cases offered an attractive alternative approach, with no postoperative wound complications and short hospitalisation. 11 This technique is another in the arsenal of an endoluminal endourologist, rather than a substitute for any particular procedure.…”

Objective: This case series aimed to demonstrate that flexible cystoscopy and laser stone fragmentation via a Mitrofanoff stoma is possible and an effective treatment for symptomatic bladder stones in complex patients with inaccessible urethras and challenging anatomy. Patients and methods: We present three cases which were managed in a tertiary centre. The procedure involved using a flexible cystoscope via the Mitrofanoff stoma and laser stone fragmentation without the need for an access sheath. Results: This technique was performed safely and demonstrated successful bladder stone clearance on follow-up, with no postoperative complications. Conclusion: Our case series illustrates a technique that can be performed in this select group of patients in specialist centres with the relevant surgical exposure and expertise. Level of evidence Level 4.
