| Summary: | Ureteroiliac fistula is a rare complication associated with ureteral stenting and iliac artery reconstruction and can lead to life-threatening hemorrhage. We report a case of acute bleeding from a ureteroiliac fistula in an 89-year-old man with bladder cancer who had undergone pelvic radiation, radical cystectomy, and ileal conduit complicated by ureteral strictures requiring routine stent exchanges. Multidisciplinary diagnostic therapies revealed the fistula, which was treated with hypogastric artery coiling and covered stent placement. No further bleeding issues had resulted from the fistula at 11 months of follow-up. The presence of a ureteroiliac fistula should be considered in any patient with a similar history.
