[Colonic adenocarcinoma after Coffey's operation. A case]

The authors describe a case of colonic adenocarcinoma in an 41-year-old woman who had undergone at age 3 an uretero-colic anastomosis because of bladder exstrophy. The tumor looked like an ovarian tumor and histology confirmed it was a Krûckenberg tumor of colonic origin. The authors review literature and insist on the necessity of a life long endoscopic follow-up of uretero-colic anastomosis.
