    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVES: To retrospectively evaluate the complications, urinary reservoir function and quality of life of patients with Hautmann ileal bladder after cystectomy for bladder urothelial carcinoma. METHODS: From 1994 to 2004, 87 patients with a mean age of 61.1 years underwent total cystoprostatectomy (n = 85 men) or radical cystectomy (n = 2 women) with Hautmann replacement enterocystoplasty. The mean follow-up was 40.7 months. Continence, quality of voiding, and quality of life were evaluated by self-administered questionnaires (continence questionnaire, DITROVIE score, I-PSS score). RESULTS: The early complication rate was 30.1%, including 6.9% related to the ileal bladder. The late complication rate was 33.6%, including 20.9% related to the ileal bladder. Four patients died during the perioperative period, 14 patients (17%) died from progression of their cancer and 7 patients (8%) died from an independent cause. One patient was lost to follow-up. Questionnaires were sent to 56 patients and 52 replies were received: 96.2% of patients were continent during the day, 53.8% were continent at night. 4.9% of patients performed self-catheterization for chronic urine retention, 90.4% of patients were satisfied with their replacement bladder and only 5.8% of patients had an altered quality of life. CONCLUSION: Despite a considerable morbidity rate and a significant nocturnal incontinence rate, the orthotopic Hautmann W-shaped ileal bladder does not appear to alter the patients' quality of life.
