Continent urinary diversion in childhood

1992

Continence and a positive body image are important, especially to the adolescent patient. Since 1964 we have used ureterosigmoidostomy and have achieved a complete continence rate of 92.3%. The creation of a low-pressure reservoir by antimesenteric splitting of the recto-sigmoid eliminated many of the shortcomings of ureterosigmoidostomy. This procedure is termed the sigma-rectum pouch and has been applied in six children to date. Mainz-pouch bladder augmentation or substitution has been performed in 20 children, 17 of whom are completely continent. The results of the modified Young Dees procedure were disappointing. In three children, conversion into a continent diversion was necessary. Al…

Kontinente Harnableitung und Schwangerschaft

1995

We report on our experience with 7 pregnancies in 6 women who previously underwent reconstruction of the urinary tract with a continent urinary diversion using an ileo caecal segment (Mainz-Pouch I), ureterosigmoidostomy or bladder augmentation. Urinary tract infection and upper tract dilatation were the only complications during pregnancy which required bilateral nephrostomies in one case. All other sequelae were handled conservatively. The continence mechanisms were not compromised during pregnancy or delivery. Deliveries were vaginal in two cases and by Caesarean section in five. All seven newborn were healthy. Pregnancy is not contraindicated after any type of urinary diversion includin…

Bladder augmentation using bowel segments (enterocystoplasty)

Long-term outcome after urinary diversion using the ileocecal segment in children and adolescents: Complications of the efferent segment.

2016

Long-term outcomes are of special concern in children after urinary diversion. In a single institution study we evaluated retrospectively the long-term outcomes of urinary diversion in children, in whom the ileocecal segment had been used, in respect to complications of the efferent segment.The Mainz pouch was used in 107 children for continent urinary diversion. Indications were neurogenic bladder (53%, 57/107), exstrophy-epispadias complex (25%, 27/107), malignancy (13%, 14/107), and others (9%, 9/107). Continent cutaneous diversion was performed in 95 patients, and 12 patients received bladder augmentation/substitution with a continent cutaneous stoma. As efferent segment, we used the in…

The mainz-pouch (mixed augmentation ileum 'n zecum) for bladder augmentation and continent diversion

1985

The ideal urinary reservoir constructed from bowel material should be a low-pressure system with a high capacity, capable of preventing upper tract deterioration resulting from ureteral obstruction or reflux. It should achieve reliable control of continence and assure easy emptying of the reservoir. In the Mainz-pouch, the combination of cecum and ileum, the latter of which is able to absorb pressure waves created by the cecum, produces a low-pressure system with a high capacity immediately postoperatively. By incorporating large bowel in our pouch, ureteral implantation can be done using a simple and reliable standard antireflux technique with a submucosal tunnel. The Mainz-pouch has been …

Continent diversion with the Mainz pouch.

1996

From 1983 until July 1994, 561 patients in 2 urology departments (Mainz and Wuppertal) underwent a Mainz pouch 1 procedure. The Mainz pouch 1 was used for bladder augmentation in 60 patients, for orthotopic bladder substitution in 61 patients, and for continent cutaneous urinary diversion in 440 patients. In the group of continent cutaneous urinary diversion, the continence mechanism applied was an ileal intussusception nipple in 270 patients, an appendix stoma in 146 patients, a submucosal seromuscular bowel-flap tube in 14 patients, and a submucosal full-thickness bowel-flap tube in 10 patients. Indications for urinary diversion were bladder cancer in 339 patients, anatomical or functiona…

Orthotopic bladder augmentation and substitution.

1999

Orthotopic bladder augmentation or substitution using intestinal segments has become a standard procedure for many disorders that cause a loss of functional or anatomical bladder capacity. From the technical point of view, reservoir configuration by detubularizing the intestinal segments is the general practice. Various techniques exist, depending which types of segments and which techniques of ureteral implantation are used. Common problems include urinary incontinence, retention, metabolic disorders, and the possibility of secondary malignancies. As a result, research has been conducted into utilizing tissues other than intestine for bladder augmentation or substitution.

Urinary diversion and reconstruction.

2000

Orthotopic bladder augmentation and substitution has been established as the standard procedure for urinary diversion in many institutions, with current studies reporting mainly on continence rates and procedure-associated complications, such as the risk of impairment of neobladder function by local tumor recurrences in the small pelvis. Similarly, in other types of continent diversion, such as continent cutaneous diversion and rectal reservoirs, current interest is primarily directed towards minimization of surgery-associated complications.

Kinder und Jugendliche mit neurogener Blasenfunktionsst�rung

2004

After the failure of conservative treatment in patients with neurogenic bladders, urinary diversion is a viable compromise between the urologist's concerns and the patient's desire, as the upper urinary tract can be protected in the long-term and high continence rates can be provided. This can be achieved with an acceptable complication rate. Our indications for orthotopic bladder augmentation or substitution involve patients with a good orthopedic condition and mobility, who find it easy to perform CISC through the urethra. A continent umbilical stoma offers a good alternative in obese, immobile or wheelchair bound patients. The serous lined extramural tunnel technique has proven to be sup…

Applications of Ureterosigmoidostomy in Bladder Exstrophy

1999

Until 1994, 95 patients with bladder exstrophy and 20 with incontinent epispadias were operated upon at our department. During the last years more and more exstrophycripples were referred to our institution after primary treatment elsewhere. Thus a total of 56 of the 104 patients had a secondary treatment after failure or unsatisfactory treatment. In contrast to many other institutions, our standard procedure was primary ureterosigmoidostomy and, since 1990 it is completely replaced by a modification of it, the sigma rectum pouch (Mainz Pouch II). After failed primary bladder closure and in patients with short or pathological ureters or insufficient anal sphincter function, we prefer an ile…
