ABSTRACT
We herein report the case of a 38-year-old female patient with crohn's disease who presented with right hydroureteronephrosis associated with extrinsic compression following an episode of acute inflammatory ileocecal disease. Percutaneous nephrostomy was performed then a double-J stent was placed via the antegrade approach and treatment with corticosteroids was started. The patient responded well to the treatment, and the double J stent could be removed 4 months later. At 2 years' follow-up there is no recurrence of the hydroureteronephrosis
