Abstract
We report three cases of ureteral-iliac fistula (UIF) in patients referred for treatment of macroscopic haematuria. Though it is a classic aetiology of haematuria, it is often difficult to diagnose and the treatment is not yet standardized. A diagnostic evaluation in combination with multidisciplinary approach improves the prognosis of the patients. Curative treatment via the endovascular route is effective and safe, and has a rapidly favourable course in all of our patients. The use of covered stents combined with the Amplatzer™ vascular plug makes the procedure easy and safe.Entities:
