[Transrenal ureteral occlusion using detachable balloons. An alternative to cutaneous ureterostomy in the treatment of vesicovaginal fistula].
The treatment of urinary fistulae is particularly delicate when they occur in the course of a neoplastic disease. The development of less invasive, but variably successful, percutaneous techniques seems essential in these advanced patients. The authors report a case of ureteric occlusion by releasable balloon allowing the simple and rapid cure of a very disabling vesico-rectal-vaginal fistula associated with recurrent pelvic tumour.
