[Article in French]

Abstract

The authors report a rare case of bilateral ureteric stenosis associated with necrotic infiltration due to acute alcoholic pancreatitis. The obstruction was caused by bilateral ureteric fibrosis with calcified incrustations on the right side and massive obstructive calculi on the left side. Only one faintly similar case has been reported in the literature out of 17 cases of unilateral or bilateral ureteric stenosis complicating acute or chronic pancreatitis.
