Abstract:
Between December 1992 and July 1993, 7 patients who underwent urinary diversion after cystectomy or bladder augmentation had colon pouches constructed with an "absorbable" staple. Our "one-step" technique of colon pouch construction incorporates standard principles of bowel detubularization and refashioning using absorbable GIA staples. The technique is easily learned and decreases operative time and blood loss. Herein we report follow-up of the first 7 patients undergoing this modification.
