A 59-year-old female was admitted with massive hematemesis and melena. A hematological examination revealed that the red blood cell count was 1.31 x 10(6)/mm3, Hb 3.4 g/dl, and Hct 12%. No source of bleeding was found by an emergency endoscopic examination of the esophagus, stomach and duodenum, or by superior mesenteric angiography. At laparotomy a right common iliac arterio-intestinal fistula was found. The microscopic examination of this part of the ileum, including the fistula, revealed the presence of tubercular peritonitis. An extra-anatomic bypass graft using a prosthetic graft was performed between the left and right femoral arteries because reconstruction of the right common iliac artery was impossible.
