Abstract
- Ilecocecal unit is anatomically and functionally well suited for augmentation cystoplasty. There is no need to artificially create a cap or tailed path because the cecum can be used without such alteration. Herein, we describe as experience with a 14 years old male patient whose bladder capacity was less then 90 ml due to renal tuberculosis. Previously, patient received right nephrectomy and temporary cystostomy to prevent vesicoureteral reflux. Augmentation ileocecocystoplasty was performed Department of Urology in this hospital on patient with good results : considerable enlargement of bladder capacity without vesicoureteral reflux.
