Augmentation cystoplasty enhances bladder capacity for various conditions like incontinence. This review covers surgical techniques, potential complications, and alternative methods for bladder augmentation.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Surgical Innovation
  • Pelvic Health

Background:

  • Augmentation cystoplasty addresses diverse bladder pathologies, including neurogenic dysfunction and idiopathic urge incontinence.
  • It is a reconstructive surgery aimed at improving bladder capacity and function.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To comprehensively review augmentation cystoplasty procedures in women.
  • To detail preoperative evaluation, surgical techniques, and postoperative care.
  • To discuss complications, alternative methods, and future directions in bladder augmentation.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of augmentation cystoplasty techniques and outcomes.
  • Analysis of common indications, surgical approaches, and management strategies.
  • Examination of potential complications and alternative reconstructive options.
