Abstract
Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XGP) is a rare but severe form of inflammatory renal disease associated with renal stones and results in granulomatous tissue invading and destroying normal parenchyma. A serious complication of XGP is fistulization to surrounding structures. We present a case of XGP with pyeloduodenal fistula (PDF) in a 48-year-old female with a history of hypertension and recurrent urinary infections but no previous stones.
