Uretero-arterial fistula due to a hypogastric aneurysm

Uretero-arterial fistula is a rare condition that can result in life-threatening haematuria, which should be diagnosed and treated immediately. We report a case of uretero-arterial fistula due to a hypogastric aneurysm. The patient underwent an endovascular treatment of the hypogastric aneurysm asso...
