VAZQUEZ ALONSO, F. et al. Ureterocutaneous fistula after nephrectomy: two cases. Actas Urol Esp [online]. 2008, vol.32, n.9, pp.931-933. ISSN 0210-4806.

The ureteral fistulas are related to the gynecological surgery, digestive surgery and reconstructive urologic surgery of the upper urinary tract. Fistulas are described ureterovaginal, ureteroduodenal, ureterocolonic, ureteropleural, ureterovascular, etc. However, the ureterocutaneous fistulas of the ureteral stump after nephrectomy are a very unusual entity. We report two cases as well as their resolution by means of surgery.

Keywords : Uro-cutaneous fistula; Surgical complications; Ureteral stump; Nephrectomy.
