Urethroperineal-rectal fistula in Crohn's disease.

A 19-year-old white male with Crohn's disease, who complained of passing urine per rectum and having retrograde ejaculations, was noted to have a urethroperineal-rectal fistula. The fistulous communication remained patent despite pharmacologic therapy, a diversion ileostomy, and a total proctocolectomy. A fistulectomy and definitive urethral repair finally resulted in resolution of the problem.
