Continent diversion with an appendix conduit and an ileocecal bladder
1Department of Urology, Ibn Al Bitar Hospital, Baghdad, Iraq.
Abstract:
Since March 1989, 23 patients have undergone continent urinary diversion with an ileocecal bladder and a reimplanted appendix conduit. In 21 patients this procedure was combined with a radical cystectomy. Of the patients 7 required an endoscopic procedure before satisfactory self-catheterization could be established. This problem was more common early in the series. The continence mechanism is extremely simple and rapid to construct. Continence rates have been most satisfactory, with only 2 patients having secondary incontinence.

Anatomy of the Intestines
Small Intestines
The small intestine is an ~7 meter-long tube with an inner diameter of just 2.5 cm. Since most nutrients are absorbed here, the inner lining of the small...

The ileocecal sphincter, a mucous membrane fold, guards the opening from the ileum to the large intestine. This valve permits material from the small intestine to pass into the large intestine. Attached to the ileocecal valve is the cecum. This small pouch, approximately 6 cm long, has a twisted, coiled tube known as...
