Introduction:
Uretero-arterial fistula (UAF) is a rare but lethal condition, the definite diagnosis is difficult and challenging.
Case presentation:
We present a 63-year-old male with history of bladder cancer status post concurrent chemoradiotherapy and radical cystoprostatectomy with left to right transureteroureterostomy and right ureterocutneoustomy reconstruction about 2 years ago. Bilateral ureter stents were regularly changed. Unfortunately, sudden onset of gross hematuria was found from ureterocutaneoustomy. Computed tomography with contrast, angiography, ureterorenoscopy and RBC scan were done but all were negative findings. After retrograde pyelography, the diagnosis as uretero-Iliac artery fistula was confirmed. Endovascular stenting surgery was performed and no more hematuria was noted during the follow up.
Conclusion:
The confirmation diagnosis of uretero-iliac fistula is still difficult and challenging, because no single test had enough sensitivity and specificity. In our case, retrograde pyelography is an important tool for diagnosis of UAFs. Further standard operation procedure for UAFs was warranted.
