Core Tip	To our knowledge, we describe the first case of high output cardiac failure due to iatrogenic iliac fistula and its management in the setting of May-Thurner syndrome (MTS). In our case, an iatrogenic iliac fistula resulted because of prior stent placement in left iliac vein to prevent deep venous thrombosis (DVT) secondary to MTS. We favored aorto-bi-iliac stent graft placement to prevent the fistula from leaking. In our case, the prior vascular stent placement was a clue to search for the fistula. It is important to note that stent placement to prevent DVT in MTS may result in iatrogenic fistula formation.
