Abstract
-
The socially acceptable control of urine is the critical problem to the patient to be diversed of his urinary stream. From the first description of a urinary diversion by Simon in 1852, various methods for urinary diversion were described and modified. But, incontinence and application of a collecting device made the patients and surgeons disappointing, so that the hope for a safe, clean, comfortable and continent urinary diversion has been increasing in the field of urology. From the 1985, we experienced Kock continent ileal reservoir in 7 patients and ureterosigmoidostomy in 4 patients (total: 11 patients), who had all invasive bladder carcinoma.
