ABSTRACT
An infected urachal cyst is an uncommon finding in adults. We report the first case of a sigmoid-urachal-cutaneous fistula that resulted from rupture of an infected urachal cyst in an adult male. Definitive management consisted of resection of the urachus with a bladder cuff, along with removal of the affected bowel segments and bowel anastomosis.

Adenomatous hyperplasia of the gallbladder is an uncommon condition, particularly in men. A literature search yields minimal information on this entity, thus suggesting the infrequency of its occurrence. Adenomyomatosis is an entity that closely resembles adenomatous hyperplasia but has hypertrophy of the muscular layer and extensive Rokitansky-Aschoff sinuses. We report the finding of adenomatous hyperplasia in a middle-aged male in the setting of symptomatic cholelithiasis.
