The aim of this review was to characterize the possible urological manifestations of rectal disorders in case of the involvement of the genitourinary system, as well as the symptoms of urological diseases involving the distal part of the large bowel. In urological and coloproctological practice, the anatomical and physiological proximity of the distal part of the intestine and the urogenital organs is of importance (for example, the common innervation of the pelvic organs, the synergy of the pelvic floor muscles, etc.), since it results in similar clinical manifestations, making it difficult to make a diagnosis. The most relevant and common urological and proctological diseases, including prostatitis, intestinovesical and rectourethral fistulas, damage to the ureter and bladder during colorectal surgery are discussed in the article. Particular attention is paid to the interdisciplinary cooperation of urologists and proctologists and the frequent need for their joint participation in the diagnosis and treatment of the pelvic organs disorders.
