The case of a patient with a solitary infected renal cyst is described. Although solitary renal cysts appear frequently, it seems that they rarely become infected, as is demonstrated by the fact that from a search of the world literature up to 1978l, only 21 such cases were described. With the current techniques such as arteriography, CT scanning and echography, diagnosis represents no problem. As far as therapy is concerned, it would seem that resection of the cyst wall and drainage is to be preferred over nephrectomy.

Review of a consecutive series of 85 cadaveric renal transplants revealed urinary fistulas in 7 cases. Bladder fistulas originated from the anterior cystostomy suture line in 3 patients and required secondary closure in every case. Ureteral fistulas from the donor ureter often required a multistaged operation. In every case the end result has been satisfactory, with closure of the fistula and preservation of renal function.
