  • Title: Appendicovesical Fistula Following Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumor With Mitomycin C.
    Author: Feng TS, Rusnack S, Kaminski J, Fleshner P.
    Journal: Urology; 2016 Mar; 89():e1-2. PubMed ID: 26724414.
    Abstract:
    Appendicovesical fistula is a rare entity, with only 116 cases reported to date. It is an uncommon form of enterovesical fistula and often associated with a history of appendicitis. It can present as pneumaturia, fecaluria, and recurrent urinary tract infections, not unlike symptoms of enterovesical fistulas. We present a novel case of appendicovesical fistula developing after transurethral resection of bladder tumor and instillation of mitomycin C. Treatment included laparoscopic appendectomy and bladder repair.
