Urinary leakage after renal transplantation is a serious complication that can lead to diagnostic difficulties. A case is reported of urinoma secondary to ureteral fistula characterized in the routine study by a photon-deficient area. Only the image obtained at 6 h allowed a correct diagnosis. The causes for this are discussed and the need to include a delayed study in the follow-up protocol of these patients is emphasized.

Introduction And Importance: Orthotopic neobladder reconstruction may be associated with complications such as neobladder-vaginal fistula (NVF) and uretero-ileal anastomotic stricture which are often managed using stents, though these can be prone to migration.
Case Presentation: We present a 69-year-old lady with a surgical history of radical cystectomy and ileal neobladder that was complicated by a left ureteric stricture and poucho-vaginal fistula for which she underwent a left ureteric stent and bilateral percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) insertions after which she lost to follow-up. The patient later presented to our center with a right subcostal anterior abdominal wall desmoid tumor for which she underwent wide local excision.
