Arch Esp Urol. 2006 Apr;59(3):287-9. [Hematuria after ureteral-iliac aneurysm rupture] [Article in Spanish] Palacios A, Massó P, Osorio L, Oliveira A, Soares J, Marcelo F. Servicio de Urología, Hospital General de Santo Antonio, Porto, Portugal. aphmmx5@hotmail.com Abstract OBJECTIVE: Ureteral-iliac artery fistula is a rare condition. We perform a bibliographic review and report a case of ureter-iliac artery fistula reviewing its major differential diagnosis. METHODS: This case-study describes a patient with massive hematuria that presented a ureter-iliac artery fistula secondary to spontaneous rupture of an internal iliac artery aneurysm. RESULTS: 86 -year-old male patient with history of previous surgery for aneurysm and ureteral catheterization. CONCLUSIONS: This difficult diagnosis should be thought of in a patient with massive macroscopic hematuria and previous vascular surgery. The treatment is always surgery.
