Résumé

We describe a case of a large, minimally symptomatic, urinoma

presenting 3 years after emergent repair of a ruptured abdominal

aortic aneurysm. We discuss the symptoms and signs, as well as

the imaging, treatment and prevention options, for this rare complication.

Because of the high mortality associated with delayed

diagnosis of ureteral injury, a high index of suspicion should be

maintained in patients who had surgery adjacent to the ureters.
