Strategies for reconstruction after unsuccessful or unsatisfactory primary treatment of patients with bladder exstrophy or incontinent epispadias.

1999

Following unsuccessful or unsatisfactory primary treatment in patients with the epispadias/exstrophy complex, the options for a surgical solution to preserve the upper urinary tract, to achieve complete continence, and to reconstruct the external and female internal genitalia are limited. We reviewed the records of the patients treated at our institution to determine a surgical compromise between ingenious operative constructions and patient desires, both of which are secondary to stabilization of renal function.From 1967 to December 1997, 128 patients with bladder exstrophy/epispadias complex were treated, of 80 whom had received previous unsuccessful or unsatisfactory treatment. Of these …

The Fate Of The Adult Exstrophy Patient

1994

Between 1968 and 1993, 101 patients with bladder exstrophy or incontinent epispadias underwent surgery at our hospital. The standard procedure was ureterosigmoidostomy and additional genital reconstruction. Of the 56 patients who have reached adulthood 45 could be interviewed regarding social integration, sexuality and fertility. All patients have a functioning urinary diversion. Of the 45 patients questioned 41 have completed vocational training or are currently in training, 3 are unemployed and 1 lives at a therapeutic center. Among the patients 29 are married or have a steady partner. All women engage in sexual intercourse and 2 have delivered 3 children by cesarean section. All men achi…

The Mainz Pouch II

1994

The Mainz pouch II procedure has proved to be a substantial modification of the classical technique of ureterosigmoidostomy at many institutions. To date we have used this procedure in 72 patients, including 15 children. Detubularization causes a low pressure and eliminates high-pressure contractions. Without the risk of compromising the blood supply the pouch is fixed at the promontory which reduces the risk of ureteral kinking and upper urinary tract dilatation as it is sometimes observed after ureterosigmoidostomy. The technique is not only indicated in cases of failed ureterosigmoidostomy but also for primary urinary diversion. Of the 72 patients operated, all are evaluable with a follo…

The Mainz pouch II (sigma rectum pouch).

1993

A low pressure rectosigmoid reservoir for urine is created obviating the need for colostomy, augmentation or extensive bowel surgery. Antimesenteric splitting of the intestine at the rectosigmoid junction and subsequent side-to-side anastomosis are performed. Urodynamic data demonstrate that the detubularization is effective in rendering high pressure bowel contractions ineffective. Without the risk of damaging the mesentery the pouch is fixed at the promontory, which lessens the risk of ureteral kinking and upper urinary tract dilatation. The technique is indicated not only in cases of failed ureterosigmoidostomy but also for primary urinary diversion. All 47 patients who underwent the ope…

The sigma rectum pouch (Mainz pouch II)

1996

A low-pressure reservoir for urine is created by antimesenteric splitting and side-to-side anastomosis of the rectosigmoid, the expectation being to obtain better continence rates and better protection of the upper tract than are achievable by ureterosigmoidostomy. Between 1990 and August 1993 the procedure was performed in 73 patients (59 adults and 14 children) whose mean age was 43.5 years. The indications were malignancy (n = 55), bladder exstrophy/epispadias (n = 14), trauma (n = 3), and sinus urogenitalis (n = 1). Of the 73 patients, 69 were followed for a mean period of 127 (range, 1-34) months. In all, 5 early complications were encountered (6.8%). In addition, 8 late complications …

Urachal Signet-ring Cell Carcinoma, A Rare Variant of Vesical Adenocarcinoma: Incidence And Pathologicalcriteria

1978

Abstract Of 715 cases of vesical tumors reviewed 18 adenocarcinomas were selected for further study, 5 of which fulfilled all criteria of urachal origin. Herein is reported 1 rare case of such a carcinoma of the signet-ring cell type and the morphological criteria of this variant are discussed briefly. After undergoing radical cystectomy and ureterosigmoidostomy the patient has been free of recurrent tumor or metastasis for 6 years.

ICUD-EAU International Consultation on Bladder Cancer 2012: Urinary diversion.

2012

Context: A summary of the 2nd International Consultation on Bladder Cancer recommendations on the reconstructive options after radical cystectomy (RC), their outcomes, and their complications. Objective: To review the literature regarding indications, surgical details, postoperative care, complications, functional outcomes, as well as quality-of-life measures of patients with different forms of urinary diversion (UD). Evidence acquisition: An English-language literature review of data published between 1970 and 2012 on patients with UD following RC for bladder cancer was undertaken. No randomized controlled studies comparing conduit diversion with neobladder or continent cutaneous diversion…

Ureterosigmoidostomy: an outdated approach to bladder exstrophy?

1990

Long-term results among 46 children with ureterosigmoidostomy are presented. The indication for ureterosigmoidostomy had been bladder exstrophy in 40 patients, incontinent epispadias in 5 and neurogenic bladder dysfunction in 1. Of the 40 patients with bladder exstrophy 8 had undergone ureterosigmoidostomy after failure of other types of urinary tract reconstruction (6 had upper tract dilatation before ureterosigmoidostomy). Three patients with previously damaged upper urinary tracts required early postoperative conversion because of severely increasing kidney dilatation. Three other patients required conversion after a mean of 10 years to preserve kidney function. One patient died after 16…
