  • Title: [Stenosis of the ileal loop in a patient with Bricker type urinary diversion].

    Abstract:
    Stenosis of the ileal loop itself in the urinary diversion performed with the technique described by Bricker is uncommon, particularly in adults, and nowadays is basically managed through non-invasive methods. This paper contributes one case of stenosis of the ileal loop in a patient with urinary diversion performed with Bricker's technique, which was treated by partial resection of the ileal loop, since use of non-invasive techniques was not possible due to technical hindrances. The pathoanatomical study showed the different etiopathogeny of this type of stenosis relative to others related to the ileal loop (stoma and ureteroileal attachment stenosis). A review is made of the etiopathogeny, signs and symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of this type of stenosis. Occurrence of stenosis as late complication has lead us to consider the convenience for late revisions in this type of surgery.
