  • 1. Katholieke Univ. Nijmegen (Netherlands). Inst. voor Radiodiagnostiek

Description

Crohn's disease has a tendency to form fistulae and abscesses, which may lead directly to urological complications. Three patients were seen who had entero-vesical fistulae; only one of these could be demonstrated radiologically. There were also seven patients with Crohn's disease who had ureteric obstruction. (orig.)
