Urological complications in malignant and inflammatory intestinal diseases

Secondary involvement of the ureter or urinary bladder in inflammatory and malignant diseases of the intestine is described with case reports and documented by figures. With involvement of the bladder wall, intractable dysuria or later pneumaturia and fecaluria arises. The symptoms from the intestine are masked by urological symptoms. If the intestinal process leads to a disease of the ureter, urological pathology is mostly limited to urographic findings; symptoms are circumscribed. However, the ureteric wall is usually already irreparably damaged.
