Abstract:
Currently, we have different technical options for treating clinically complex scenarios such as neurogenic bladder, difficult to manage lower urinary tract obstruction and many disasters sometimes seen after prostate cancer treatment. During the seventies, clean intermittent bladder catheterization was established as the best treatment option for these patients. As a method, suprapubic urinary diversion has undergone a major evolution over the past fifty years trying to solve the most refractory and poor prognosis cases. Continent ileovesicostomy is an easy emptying and low-pressure non-catheterizable urinary conduit that enables safe and durable urine elimination. In this article a detailed and updated knowledge of this technique is provided.

Ostomy Care
An ostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an artificial opening from the intestines to the outside of the body, allowing for the rerouting of effluent. This opening is known as a stoma. A stoma usually protrudes above the skin surface, appearing pink or red, moist, and round, and it lacks nerve sensations.
There are different types of ostomies, including colostomies, ileostomies, and urostomies:
