ABSTRACT
The ureteral fistula is the most common urologic complication and it usually occurs within the first 3 weeks after renal transplantation. The dominant cause is damage to the arterial supply of the transplanted ureter by close dissection at time of donor nephrectomy. The signs and symptoms of ureteral fistula can mimmic acute rejection, which is oliguria, anuria, fever, wound tenderness, swelling and decreased renal function. It was well established that open intervention was standardized for such problem. Recently nonoperative percutaneous approaches to the placement of stents and tubes are used. Herein we report a case of ureteral fistula, misdiagnosed as acute rejection after renal transplantation, which was healed with Silastic drain insertion in a 22-year-old male recipient.
