- Abstract
Ureteroarterial fistula is a rare but life-threatening condition most often arising as a consequence of combined vascular and urologic pathology. Only about 70 cases are reported in the English literature. Principles of repair include complete vascular isolation, extra-anatomic bypass, and urinary stream diversion away from major vascular conduits. The case presented herein is only the second reported instance of fistulization to an anastomotic pseudoaneurysm of an iliopopliteal bypass.
