Modified Technique for Internal Ureteroileal Stenting in Orthotopic Neobladders
نویسنده
چکیده
We introduce a modified surgical technique for internal ureteroileal stenting to improve cosmesis in patients undergoing ileal neobladder. Internal ureteric stents are secured to the tip of the urethral catheter with nonabsorbable suture facilitating removal of the stents postoperatively 2 3 weeks along with the urethral catheter. This surgical modification was applied to 21 patients of whom no significant surgical or infectious complication due to single urethral catheter was observed. Internal ureteral stenting is simple, safe and inexpensive alternative to conventional methods to support ureteroileal anastomosis in patients undergoing orthotopic bladder substitution.

Objective. Although a large debate exists regarding the need for reflux prevention in ileal orthotopic neobladders, it is our policy to continue performing nonrefluxing ureteroileal anastomoses for our patients. An ideal uretero-ileal anastomosis must be simple, nonrefluxing, as well as non-obstructive. Here, we present a new antireflux mechanism for orthotopic ileal neobladders. Methods. 12 ra...

Ureteroileal stenoses occur in 1.2-20% patients with neobladders. They constitute a serious clinical complication since, as every obstruction of urine flow from the kidney. Ureteroileal stenoses develop usually within firs 6 to 12 months following the extended urological procedure such as radical cystectomy with the creation of ileal orthotopic neobladder. Ureteroileal stenosis belongs to the m...

Objectives. Many techniques were described for ureteroileal anastomosis in orthotopic bladder substitution, ranging from nonrefluxing to refluxing techniques, all aiming at preservation of the upper tract. We describe our technique of dipping the ureter into the ileal pouch, which is simple and had no complications. Patients and Methods. Our technique implies dipping the ureter in the lateral s...

Although medical complications were important, they were not the focus of this study. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between January 1995 and December 2003, 192 women with a mean age of 50.6 years received an orthotopic ne...
