Sigmoid conduit urinary diversion

Sigmoid conduit urinary diversion

P T Scardino et al. Urology. 1975 Aug.

Abstract

The courses of 11 patients with sigmoid conduit urinary diversion following total pelvic exenteration were reviewed in detail and the results presented. The sigmoid conduit appears to be a safe alternative to the ileal conduit for urinary diversion, and offers in addition the possible advantage of an effective antirefluxing ureterocolic anastomosis.
