[Uretero-iliac artery fistula: endovascular treatment. Complications of prolonged use of double J endoprosthesis].
The authors report a case of fistula between the external iliac artery and the left ureter, in a patient with a double J stent for several years to treat iatrogenic ureteric stenosis. The diagnosis was suggested by the patient's history and the presence of bright haematuria from the left ureteric meatus. Interventional radiology established the positive diagnosis and allowed treatment by placement of a covered prosthesis in the external iliac artery. This is the fourth published case of endovascular treatment of an iliac uretero-arterial fistula.
