    Author: Collado Serra A, Monreal García de Vicuña F, Gausa Gascon L, Caparrós Sariol J, Ferré Fuentes J, Vicente Rodríguez J.
    Journal: Arch Esp Urol; 2000 Apr; 53(3):264-7. PubMed ID: 10851734.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To discuss the clinical presentation, complementary evaluation procedures and treatment of ileovesical fístula, an uncommon complication of Crohn's disease. METHODS/RESULTS: After the clinical presentation, complementary evaluation procedures were performed to confirm the diagnosis in all cases. Treatment was based on the patient's general condition; surgery was performed in two cases and one case was carefully followed. CONCLUSIONS: Ileovesical fístula is an uncommon complication of Crohn's disease. Occasionally, the urological symptoms may precede the digestive symptoms, therefore this condition should be suspected particularly if the complementary evaluation procedures are not very sensitive. Surgery is the treatment of choice.
