  • Title: Ammoniagenic coma following ureterosigmoidostomy.
    Author: Kaufman JJ.
    Journal: J Urol; 1984 Apr; 131(4):743-5. PubMed ID: 6368869.
    Abstract:
    Ammoniagenic coma or episodic stupor is a rare complication of ureterosigmoidostomy. We report a case with the unusual features of normal liver function and normal liver biopsy. With extremely rare exception, ammoniagenic coma will not occur in the presence of normal ornithine-urea cycle synthesis in the liver.
