[Arterio-ureteral fistula, report of three cases].

On connection with four cases of arterio-uro-enteric fistula in three patients and after a review of the literature, the authors propose to make light on this extremely rare complication describing aetiologies factors and the diagnostic means and therapeutics. Two patients had had a pelvic exenteration with respectively Bricker and Kock pouch. The third patient had had an anterior resection in block with the right deferent duct and right seminal gland. All three received high doses of radiotherapy. These fistulas had appeared by abundant haemorrhages. The surgical operation in urgency had made it possible to treat these fistulas with success in two patients. The other patient had deceased of cataclysmic haemorrhage.
