title: [Pre-renal failure due to villous adenoma of the colon].
abstract: A 68-year-old man with known villous adenoma of the rectum had recurrent severe episodes of dehydration and electrolyte loss, misinterpreted as being due to "chronic pyelonephritic". The dehydration proved, in fact, to be due to the adenoma and ceased after removal of the tumour.
