[Arteriovenous fistula of the renal stump after nephrectomy].
An arteriovenous fistula of the renal pedicle is a rare complication after nephrectomy. Most of cases we identify it time along after surgery. We present a case of an arteriovenous fistula of the right renal pedicle after nephrectomy done for pyonephrosis 40 years before. We comment the clinical features, treatment and evolution of the patient. We also review the actual literature.
