Today incontinent urinary diversion continues to be the most widely used diversion technique. A current Medicare evaluation showed that 80% of patients undergoing urinary diversion in the USA are subject to reconstruction by means of an ileal conduit [1]. In particular, older patients, patients with comorbidities, and women more frequently receive an incontinent urinary diversion [2,3]. Even with improved perioperative clinicalcare pathways, urinary diversion remains a morbid procedure. Complications are still common after urinary diversion with ≈ 27% patients re-admitted in the first 90 days after BJUI
