Abstract
-
Of 10 patients 6 underwent bladder augmentation by ileocecal cystoplasty using intussusception technique (3 cases) and placation technique (3 cases) for contracted bladder due to tuberculosis and 4 underwent ileocecal conduit using intussusception for 3 patients of bladder malignancy and 1 patient of urethra and bladder malignancy following total cystectomy Satisfactory results have archived in 9 of 10 patients with follow-up as long as 2 years and 6 months No reflux was observed except a case of ileocecal cystoplasty using placation technique. The ilecocecal valve is not effective in the long - term prevention of reflux and use of a recently described ileal intussusception technique seems preferable.
