METHODS A total of 317 individuals were evaluated using clinical, serological and radiological methods and divided into three groups: 1) one hundre...

Having been very much impressed by the results obtained with use of a segment of the sigmoid colon as a partial substitute for the urinary bladder (colo-cystoplasty), we decided to perform total substitution of the cancerous bladder with an isolated segment of the sigmoid colon anastomosed to the urethra, thus obtaining a functional artificial bladder from which the patient would void through t...
