  • Title: [Bladder drainage in pancreas transplantation--results of a consecutive series of 100 transplantations].
    Author: Illner WD, Theodorakis WD, Schneeberger H, Stangl HM, Land W.
    Journal: Langenbecks Arch Chir Suppl Kongressbd; 1997; 114():1045-7. PubMed ID: 9574327.
    Abstract:
    Simultaneous pancreas/kidney transplantation has become a therapeutic approach for patients with renal failure resulting from type-I diabetes mellitus. However, the appropriate route for drainage of the exocrine secretions of the pancreatic gland remains unclear. While bladder drainage is the current state of the art, it is associated with a high frequency of urologic complications like urinary tract infections, hematuria, metabolic acidosis, and reflux pancreatitis.
