Abstract:
Objective To investigate the pathogenesis ,d iagnosis and treatment of traumatic pseudoaneurysmal-ureteral fistula. Methods A 49-year-old male patient with traumatic iliac pseu doaneurysmal-ureteral fistula was reported.The patient presented with recurrent massive hematuria,and then was diagnosed by DSA and ureteroscopy.By reviewing t he published literature on arterio-ureteral fistula, we analyzed and discussed the patient’s clinical data. Results The patient was cu red by endovascular management.The procedure was as follows.First,the right exte rnal iliac artery was dilated with balloon;then the right internal iliac artery was embolized;finally,a covered stent was placed into the right external iliac a rtery.During 18-month follow-up,no hematuria recurred. Conclusions Traumatic pseudoaneurysmal -ureteral fistula is clinically rare.Th e main symptom is massive hematuria.DSA and ureteroscopy are important means for diagnosis of the disease.Endovascular therapy with covered stents is a safe,eff icacious method for the treatment of the disease.
