“…Fistulization between the iliac artery and ureter is a rare occurrence that can produce catastrophic bleeding leading to death [5,8,15,19,[28][29][30][31]. A high index of suspicion is necessary for timely diagnosis and treatment [2,23,25].…”

“…In patients with UAF of nonvascular etiology treated with open surgical approach, primary arterial repair was possible only in 7 of 20 analyzed cases [1,7,10,12,14,19,32]. Eight patients underwent iliac artery ligation, an iliac artery graft was placed in 4 and extra-anatomical bypass was performed in 4 cases [4, 11, 15-17, 20, 23, 26-29].…”

“…In cases with previous pelvic radiation, pelvic surgery or in patients who are poor surgical candidates, open surgical repair is associated with higher morbidity and mortality rates [19]. Ipsilateral renal unit loss has been reported in about 50% of cases treated with open procedures and the mortality rate reached 39% [4,6,9,12,17,20,23,28,29].…”

Ureteroarterial fistulas related to nonvascular etiology are rare clinical entities that are difficult to diagnose and manage. Diagnosis is best made by a combination of studies, including digital subtraction angiography. Low morbidity and mortality rates have been described with either percutaneous thrombosis of the iliac artery and extra-anatomic bypass, or by placement of a stented graft in the involved artery. We report on a well-documented case of a ureteroarterial fistula managed successfully with interventional radiologic embolization of the common iliac artery and immediate femoral-femoral arterial bypass. A review of the literature supports this approach.
