[Urologic complications in Crohn disease].
The main urological complications of Crohn's disease are: vesico-intestinal fistula, ureteral obstruction, formation of urinary calculi and amyloidosis of the kidney. In the course of their illness nearly 4 to 10 per cent of patients with Crohn's disease suffer from these complications. The frequency of vesico-intestinal fistula is nearly 4 per cent; with great fluctuations, the frequency of ureteral obstruction is specified by 6 per cent. 10 per cent of all patients with Crohn's disease will suffer from secondary amyloidosis. In most cases the kidney is the organ of manifestation. In 5 per cent the formation of urinary calculi is complicating Crohn's disease. The specific complications are demonstrated in symptoms, diagnostic and therapy.
