Abstract:
Orthotopic bladder replacement using detubularized ileum has become a popular form of continent urinary diversion after performing radical cystectomy for treating invasive bladder cancer. Delayed spontaneous rupture of an orthotopic ileal bladder has rarely been reported in the English literature and it has never been reported in Korea. We describe here a case of delayed spontaneous rupture of an ileal orthotopic neobladder secondary to overdistension, and this was successfully managed nonoperatively.
