Abstract
Ureteral embolisation has been described in the use of complete occlusion of the ureter to manage urinary leaks, haematuria, and fistulas. This is usually a management option of last resort in patients who have many co-morbidities, poor surgical candidates, or previous pelvic surgery. We report the use of vascular coils and glue to manage a uretero-ileal anastomotic leak following radical cystoprostatectomy. CrownEntities:
