Title: [Bilateral ureter within single nipple for cutaneous ureterostomy after radical cystectomy]. Author: Zhao G, Qiao B, Zhang W, Yang T, Wang G. Journal: Zhonghua Wai Ke Za Zhi; 1998 Oct; 36(10):606-7. PubMed ID: 11825476. Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of bilateral ureter within single nipple for cutaneous ureterostomy after radical cystectomy. METHOD: Bilateral ureter within single nipple for cutaneous ureterostomy was performed on 36 patients after radical cystectomy. RESULT: The nipple was formed well, and urinary drainage was patent. No death or severe complication occurred. The patients have been followed up for 3 months to 3.5 years. Urinary, electrolyte and renal functions were within normal levels. No pyelonephritis or hydronephrosis was observed in IVP, retrograde pyelography and/or sonographic examination of kidneys, no nipple constriction. A right ureter was pulled to the left retroperitoneum and formed a nipple with ureter left on the left abdominal wall. CONCLUSION: This is a simple and safe operation, especially suitable to the old and weak patients.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
