RéSUMé: La fistule artério-urétérale (FAU), qui survient immédiatement après une cystectomie, est une complication exceptionnelle et grave. De nos jours, seulement quelques cas sporadiques ont été signalés dans la littérature. Elle se manifeste presque exclusivement par une hématurie brutale, massive et intermittente pouvant être à l'origine d'une instabilité hémodynamique menaçant le pronostic vital du patient à court terme. Son diagnostic doit être fait sans retard. Les explorations radiologiques restent peu spécifiques et peu sensibles et se basent essentiellement sur l'artériographie. Le traitement est non codifié selon l'état général du patient et surtout de la nature de la fistule. Nous décrivons un cas de FAU faisant suite à une pelvectomie antérieure et nous discuterons à l'aide d'une revue de la littérature les aspects diagnostiques, thérapeutiques et pronostiques de cette complication.

Pilonidal sinus (PNS) is a nest of hair which typically presents as pits, pus discharge, and an abscess at the natal cleft region. In rare conditions where pilonidal abscess is not drained properly, it progresses posteriorly and reaches anal canal, eventually coexisting with anal fistula. Both are associated with a high recurrence rate despite surgical management.
