Abstract
Urogenital tuberculosis continues to be a major health problem around the world due to the epidemic of HIV infection.
 We report the case of a 40-year-old patient followed for urogenital tuberculosis and who presented during her follow-up a complication of her disease type ureteral stenosis, managed by endoscopic route.
 We try through our work to focus on the value of surveillance after anti-bacillary treatment in order to watch for complications and act in an innocuous way.
