Abstract:
The author had experienced 3 cases of ureterosigmoidostomy with sigmoid pouch and colostomy above as urinary diversion after total cystectomy in patients having advanced bladder carcinoma. The postoperative complications such as electrolyte imbalance, infection or hydronephrosis were not remarkable in these cases, which have been frequently encountered in ureterosigmoidostomy alone. The patients had been well in urination without significant frequency, residual urine or incontinence.
