title: [Colo-urachal-cutaneous fistula in an adult].
abstract: BACKGROUND
  An infected urachal cyst is an uncommon finding in adults.
  
  
  OBJECTIVE
  To report a case of a sigmoid- urachal- cutaneous fistula.
  
  
  METHODS
  A 51 years old adult male presented with fecaloid leaking from rupture of an infected urachal cyst. Definitive management consisted of resection of the urachus with a bladder cuff, along with removal of the affected bowel segments.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Colo-urachal-cutaneous fistula is a rare condition; its management is rather complex.
