Abstract

Augmentation cystoplasty is effective in the rehabilitation of the contracted bladder of small capacity caused by tuberculosis or interstitial cystitis refractory to more conservative methods of management. Genitourinary tuberculosis is the most common cause of contracted bladder in Korea and it may lead to considerable vesicoureteral reflux and progressive deterioration of renal function. The use of hemi-Kock ileal pouch with an afferent intussuscepted nipple is a suitable solution in patient in whom the bladder outflow tract provides adequate resistance and supratrigonal cystectomy is to be performed with construction of an antireflux mechanism. Herein, we report 4 cases of hemi-Kock ileocystoplasty.
