title: [Endourologic treatment of uretero-ileal stenosis].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Ureterointestinal stricture represents a serious problem whose management has traditionally been by open surgery. Endourological treatment is an alternative that is generally free from the complications of open surgery, but with a lower success rate. The efficacy of endourological treatment is analyzed in 14 cases of ureteroileal stricture (12 patients) and the different treatment options are discussed.
  
  
  METHODS
  Ureteroileal stricture was managed endourologically in 9 of 13 cases (69%) by dilatation (6 cases), incision+dilatation (2 cases) and stenting (1 case).
  
  
  RESULTS
  Of the 6 cases submitted to dilatation, 3 recurred at 6 months, 2 remained patent at 18 and 24 months, respectively, and 1 was lost to follow up because the patient underwent reimplantation (40% success rate). The two cases submitted to incision are patent at 18 and 19 months, respectively.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The overall success rate for endourological treatment of ureteroileal stricture is 28% (4/14 cases) at 19 months mean follow up.
