Enterovesical fistula represents an abnormal communication between the intestine and bladder. The causes are diverticulitis (56.3%), malignant tumours, which are located mainly in the intestine (20.1%), and Crohn's disease (9.1%). Other causes include iatrogenic injury (3.2%); trauma; foreign bodies in the intestinal tract; radiotherapy; chronic appendicitis; tuberculosis; and syphilis. Normal vaginal delivery as a cause for enterovesical fistula has not been reported in many publications yet. We report a case of a 30-year-old female, who developed an jejunovesical fistula after normal vaginal delivery. It was diagnosed after diagnostic cystoscopy and computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis. There was jejuno-vesical fistula. Resection of the segment of the jejunum with side-to-side anastomosis with bladder repair was done. A follow-up cystogram was done which showed no contrast extravasation into the peritoneum. The patient was followed up for 9 months after surgery. Keywords: case reports; fistula; jejunum; urinary bladder.

Primary retroperitoneal masses have numerous differential diagnoses, many of which are rare entities. These can be neoplastic or nonneoplastic. Among the rare conditions are solitary fibrous tumors, which can either be benign or malignant. It is a mesenchymal, spindle-cell tumor, reported first in 1931 as a pleural tumor by Klemperer et al. A 20-year-old lady, with abdominal pain for 6 months, was diagnosed with a retroperitoneal mass on the left lower abdomen on USG which was confirmed by an MRI scan of the abdomen. The patient underwent laparoscopy-assisted excision of the mass. The final histopathological reports and immunohistochemistry reports revealed a solitary fibrous tumor. Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are rare tumors in the retroperitoneum. In our search, fewer than a hundred cases have been reported. It has a characteristic "patternless pattern" in a microscopic study. Adverse outcomes of SFTs are associated with atypical features in histology, such as nuclear pleomorphism, necrosis, increased cellularity, and mitoses >4/10 HPF and size more than 10 cm. The standard of care is surgical excision with clear margins. Open surgeries have been done traditionally; we present a case where we performed the excision laparoscopically.

Herniation of bladder mucosa through the bladder wall muscle layer is known as bladder diverticulum. The incidence of bladder diverticulum is 1.7. About 0.8 to 10% of the urinary bladder diverticulum develops carcinoma. Transitional cell carcinoma is the most common. Painless hematuria is the most common clinical presentation. Different imaging modalities along with cystoscopy are the key to accurate diagnosis and staging. High grade multifocal urothelial carcinoma in the bladder diverticulum is better managed by radical cystectomy and standard pelvic lymph node dissection with an ileal conduit. Here we report a case of a 66-year old gentleman of high grade multifocal urothelial carcinoma in bladder diverticulum managed with radical cystectomy and standard pelvic lymph node dissection with an ileal conduit. Such cases have been addressed adequately in the literature, but we did not find such cases from our country.
