[Bilateral ureter within single nipple for cutaneous ureterostomy after radical cystectomy]
1Department of Urology, First Affiliated Hospital, Henan Medical University, Zhengzhou 450052.
Objective:
To evaluate the effect of bilateral ureter within single nipple for cutaneous ureterostomy after radical cystectomy.
Method:
Bilateral ureter within single nipple for cutaneous ureterostomy was performed on 36 patients after radical cystectomy.
Result:
The nipple was formed well, and urinary drainage was patent. No death or severe complication occurred. The patients have been followed up for 3 months to 3.5 years. Urinary, electrolyte and renal functions were within normal levels. No pyelonephritis or hydronephrosis was observed in IVP, retrograde pyelography and/or sonographic examination of kidneys, no nipple constriction. A right ureter was pulled to the left retroperitoneum and formed a nipple with ureter left on the left abdominal wall.
Conclusion:
This is a simple and safe operation, especially suitable to the old and weak patients.
