    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Oncology
    • Palliative Care

    Background:

    • Advancements in nonsurgical urinary diversion and cancer treatments increase patient eligibility for palliative urinary diversion.
    • Urinary diversion is essential for diagnosis, pain/sepsis management, and supporting other disease treatments.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To outline indications and considerations for palliative urinary diversion in cancer patients.
    • To review various methods of urinary diversion based on clinical scenarios.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of current practices and indications for palliative urinary diversion.
    • Discussion of internal diversion (ureteral stents), percutaneous nephrectomy, and surgical diversion techniques (cutaneous ureterostomy, ileal segment diversion).

    Main Results:

    • Urinary diversion is indicated for diagnosis, pain, sepsis, and to facilitate other treatments.
    • Decision-making for diversion in refractory uremia requires individualized assessment (age, tumor type, socioeconomics).
    • Preferred methods include ureteral stents, followed by percutaneous nephrectomy or surgical diversion based on ureteral status.

    Conclusions:

    • Palliative urinary diversion plays a vital role in comprehensive cancer care.
    • Method selection for urinary diversion should be tailored to patient-specific factors and clinical feasibility.
    • Internal diversion methods are preferred when possible, with surgical options reserved for specific indications.
