Colovesical Fistula in a Kidney Transplant Patient: A Fatal Outcome.

Colovesical fistula (CVF) is a rare but potentially serious condition characterized by abnormal communication between the colon and the bladder. This pathology can result from inflammatory diseases, malignancies, or previous surgical interventions, with a significant impact on the patient's quality of life. CVF is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates, particularly in immunosuppressed individuals, such as renal transplant recipients, due to their increased susceptibility to infections and surgical complications.

Combined Percutaneous and Endoscopic Ureterolithotripsy of Calcified Double J Stent.

In urological practice, the routine procedure of placing a double J stent aims to facilitate drainage of the upper urinary system. Despite its temporary nature and the necessity for timely removal, approximately 12% of these stents are retained in patients for extended durations due to various reasons. Forgotten ureteral stents can lead to complications that increase the morbidity and mortality of patients.
