Abstract
Fistulas between the iliac artery and the ureter are uncommon. Overall , fewer than 20 cases have been described in the literature. We report the first bilateral case, in which there was an association with indw elling bilateral ureteral stents and a history of radiation therapy fo llowing hysterectomy performed because of malignancy. The patient pres ented with massive gross haematuria.
