Rupture of an Infected Renal Cyst Secondary to a Renocolic Fistula in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease

We present a rare case of retroperitoneal rupture of an infected renal cyst secondary to a renocolic fistula in a patient with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Intraperitoneal rupture of infected cysts in ADPKD resulting in peritonitis has been described, but to our knowledge, t...

description We present a rare case of retroperitoneal rupture of an infected renal cyst secondary to a renocolic fistula in a patient with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Intraperitoneal rupture of infected cysts in ADPKD resulting in peritonitis has been described, but to our knowledge, this is the first reported case of retroperitoneal rupture. Cyst infections are a common complication of ADPKD and are difficult to treat, potentially leading to sepsis and death.
