title: [Value of cloverleaf double J ureteral stents in the treatment of extrinsic ureteral compression].
abstract: The authors report three cases of extrinsic bilateral ureteric stenoses in which standard double J ureteric stents did not allow medium-term improvement of renal function or resolution of pyelocaliceal cavity dilatation on ultrasonography. A favourable course was observed after insertion of cloverleaf double J ureteric stents.
