Common iliac artery-ureteral fistula: a case report and literature review.
The iliac artery-ureteral fistula is a rare complication that can produce a catastrophic situation or even death. Diagnosis is difficult to make preoperatively unless it is highly suspected. We report an additional case that was successfully resolved by surgery and review the previously published cases.
