We report the case of a 76‐year‐old woman who developed a colonic adenocarcinoma and a stone in an Indiana pouch 15 years after the urinary diversion. The colonic adenocarcinoma was treated endoscopically and we were able to preserve the Indiana pouch. To our knowledge, this is the sixth case of colonic adenocarcinoma in an Indiana pouch.
