Abstract:
Bleeding from ileal conduit stomal varices is a rare complication. The standard treatment for the management of stomal varices has not been established yet. We present the case of a 65-yearold man with recurrent fatal bleeding from his ileal conduit stomal varices who was successfully treated with ligation of the engorged venous varices using hemostatic agents.
