Neovesical-Urethral Anastomotic Stricture Successfully Treated by Ureteral Dilation Balloon Catheter

چکیده
Neovesical-urethral anastomotic stricture is a complication of orthotopic neobladder, with a reported incidence of 2.7% to 8.8%. Strictures of the neovesico-urethral anastomotic site can be treated with regular self-dilation, but high-grade strictures require a surgical procedure involving incision by electrocautery or cold knife. Here we describe a grade III neovesical-urethral anastomotic stricture after an orthotopic bladder substitution that was successfully treated by use of a ureteral dilation balloon catheter.

[Balloon dilation for ureteral stricture with stone fragments after ESWL].
We treated 5 cases of severe hydronephrosis with balloon dilation. Those hydronephrosis were due to the ureteral stricture with small stone fragments after ESWL (Lithostar). In each case, in situ ESWL had been done on a long-lodged ureteric stone with severe hydronephrosis. And even after the disintegration of stone with ESWL, hydronephrosis remained due to ureteral stricture with small stone f...
متن کاملSuccessful endoscopic dilation of severe bilioenteric strictures with a wire-guided diathermic dilator and short-type single-balloon enteroscope.
Recently, balloon enteroscopy has made possible the use of endoscopic approaches to the surgically reconstructed intestine [1–4], so that hepaticojejunostomy strictures can be treated endoscopically. We describe the successful endoscopic dilation of a severe hepaticojejunostomy stricture with a wire-guided diathermic dilator (6-Fr, 180-cm Cysto-Gastro-Set; Endo-flex, Voerde, Germany) (●" Fig.1)...

BACKGROUND Anastomotic stricture is a complex and substantial complication following Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy. Initially, endoscopic and percutaneous approaches are often attempted, but the gold standard remains surgical biliary reconstruction, especially for refractory stricture. However, this solution leaves much room for improvement, due to the challenging nature of the biliary reconstr...
متن کاملAn Intractable Caustic Esophageal Stricture Successfully Managed with Sequential Treatment Comprising Incision with an Insulated-Tip Knife, Balloon Dilation, and an Oral Steroid
Bougie or balloon dilation is a good short-term treatment for caustic esophageal strictures, although recurrence after dilation occurs in approximately 30% of these cases. Therefore, long-term treatment options are required in some cases, and endoscopic incisional therapy has been used for patients with an anastomotic stricture in the gastrointestinal tract. A 58-year-old woman presented with s...
متن کامل[Benign anastomotic strictures after oncologic rectal cancer surgery. Results of treatment with hydrostatic dilation].
INTRODUCTION Benign anastomotic strictures after rectal cancer surgery are common and their treatment can vary from conservative measures to surgical resection. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between March 2001 and August 2008, 422 patients with rectal cancer underwent anterior resection and 83.8% were treated with primary anastomosis. Anastomotic stricture has been defined as the inability to pass a c...
