Migration of clips to the colon after laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.

A 78-year-old man was treated with laparoscopic partial nephrectomy for a 4 cm tumour in the lower pole of the left kidney. The patient was discharged 2 days postoperatively. Preoperatively there was no sign of metastasis; the pathology indicated complete removal of the tumour, a renal cell carcinoma.
