[Clinical evaluation on Le Duc-Camey antireflux ureteroileal implantation]

Le Duc-Camey antireflux ureteroileal implantation was evaluated clinically; by applying to various types of urinary reconstruction utilizing the ileum. Nineteen ureters in 10 cases including five Kock continent ileal urinary reservoirs (Kock pouches); five ileal conduit urinary diversions and one Goodwin ileocystoplasty were performed from March 1987 to August 1988. Male and female ratio was 8 to 2 and the average age was 61.7 years old. The post operative observation period was 13.9 months on the average. The outline of the operative procedure was as follows: a 3 cm sulcus was created in the mucosa along the long axis of the ileum; the ureter was passed from the serosal surface to the luminal surface and the adventitia of the ureter and the mucosa were sutured at three points in each side using 3-0 absorbable ligature to implant the ureter in the mucosal sulcus. The ureteral end was spatulated 3 mm in the upper wall and it was fixed to the mucosa by three stitches. A ureteral stent catheter, 7-8 Fr. in diameter, was indwelled in the ureter. Additional stitches were placed to strengthen the fixation on the outside surface of Kock pouches or a Goodwin ileocystoplasty. The afferent limb was not fabricated in Kock pouches because ileoureteral reflux could be prevented by the implantation technique on the pouch. Radiological evaluation was done taking IVP, loopography, pouchgraphy and cytography periodically after the operation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
