“…The most common etiology is chronic infection with or without calculus disease. However, there are also reports on fistulas caused by foreign bodies [2], trauma [3], primary duodenal pathology [4, 5], or iatrogenic secondary to instrumentation or operation [6]. The etiology in this case is either chronic infection and nephrolithiasis or an iatrogenic injury from the multiple episodes of instrumentation.…”

Background/Aims: Ureteroduodenal fistulas are rare and only 11 cases have been reported in the literature since 1918. Diagnosis requires careful observation of symptoms. Methods: The case presented demonstrates a 68-year-old female with left-sided ureteroduodenal fistula confirmed by CT scan. A duodenal fistula was localized and an atrophic left kidney was identified and repaired. Results: Nephroureterectomy was performed and an omental patch was used for the repair. No complications were encountered during the postoperative course. Conclusions: Recurrent chronic urinary tract infection, pyuria and hematuria can indicate this rare disease. Early testing and detection can improve the chances of renal preservation.

“…The cause of both cases were chronic renal infection, successfully treated with nephrectomy and closure of duodenal defect. 2 Other causes of fistulas have been reported as secondary to ureteral calculi, roundworm infection, iatrogenic injury, trauma, malignancy and idiopathy. [3][4][5] Common presentations of this condition were flank pain, fever, pyuria, pneumaturia and upper gastrointestinal tract symptoms such as anorexia, nausea and vomiting.…”

Uretero-duodenal fistula is an uncommon complication in urology. The cause of fistula have been reported as ureteral calculi, iatrogenic injury, trauma and malignancy. The gold standard treatment of uretero-duodenal fistula remains controversial. The most common management is nephrectomy and primary closure of fistula. We report a case of 67 yearold man with uretero-duodenal fistula after laparoscopic correction of ureteropelvic junction obstruction. In the era of minimal invasive management, we decided to use endoscopic and conservative treatment. The definitive treatment will be reconsidered if conservative treatment fails. We will discuss the steps of management and follow-up for this patient.

“…[ 1 ]. They have been reported to occur secondary to chronic renal infection, ureteric calculi, duodenal ulcer diseases, roundworm infestation of urinary tract, iatrogenic injury, trauma or ingestion of foreign body [ 2 , 3 ]. Patients usually present with recurrent urinary tract infections, flank pain, hematuria and diarrhea.…”
