    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: In the last two decades, attention has been focused on the design of continent urinary diversion and orthotopic neobladder in an attempt to find the ideal bladder substitute. The more commonly utilized techniques of orthotopic bladder replacement are described and the urodynamic aspects and complications are analyzed. METHODS: The series of Studer, Hautmann, Kock, Pagano, Thuroff (Mainz Pouch) and Goldwasser and the relevant literature on this subject were reviewed. RESULTS/CONCLUSION: To date, similar functional results have been achieved by the different techniques of bladder substitution, although different intestinal segments are utilized. A longer follow-up is warranted to determine which is the ideal technique of bladder substitution.
