Abstract
The following are common aspects of today’s knowledge of Crohne’s disease. It can be extended from the cardia through the rectum, and very often there are urological complications. Often the preliminary diagnosis is carcinoma although the final diagnosis cannot be confirmed without pathohistological finding. We treated 4 cases of regional enteritis with urological complications: one patient had ileovesical fistulas, one had colovesical fistulas, one had paranephritic apscess and one had symptoms of progradiated prostatic cancer disease. In all these cases it is clear that Crohne’s disease can be dominated by urological symptoms, the preoperative diagnosis is almost difficult to give and urological complications can be very unusual.
