Simplified nonrefluxing ileovesical anastomosis. Experimental study and clinical application

A simplified ileovesical anastomosis is herein described. It prevents vesicoileal reflux and allows for unimpeded efflux of urine into the bladder. The technique involves implanting 3 inches of distal ileum into a denuded muscular bed in the bladder. Vesical mucosa grows over the ileum creating an effective valvular mechanism. Experimental work done on the canine bladder and the use of this technique in 2 patients is described.
