  • Title: Ileal conduit calculi from stapler anastomosis: a long-term complication?
    Author: Brenner M, Johnson DE.
    Journal: Urology; 1985 Dec; 26(6):537-40. PubMed ID: 4071863.
    Abstract:
    A long-term review of 24 patients in whom ileal conduit diversions were constructed using surgical staples has shown calculi developing as a result of the staples in only 1 patient (4.2%). Experience suggests that calculi usually form within fourteen months of surgery, pass spontaneously, and produce minimal symptoms.
