Effect of ureterointestinal anastomosis on renal function and morbidity in intestinal urinary diversion
2013
Abstract Objective.The authors previously successfully applied the “flap-and-trough” (FT) method of antireflux ureterointestinal anastomosis (UIA) in a pilot set of 81 patients. This randomized prospective trial tested the effectiveness of this method in protecting the upper urinary tract from obstruction, reflux and infections. Material and methods.Forty-nine patients indicated for cystectomy and intestinal urinary diversion were randomly split into two groups, A and B. The FT antireflux UIA was applied in group A (n = 20), and refluxing direct elliptical UIA in group B (n = 29). Both groups were divided into two subcategories according to the type of diversion used: Ar (n = 10) and Br (n = 16) with low-pressure reservoirs and Ac (n = 10) and Bc (n = 13) with conduits. The follow-up evaluation compared the groups regarding perioperative complications, antireflux efficiency of FT, occurrence of obstruction and urinary infection, kidney morphology and glomerular filtration rate. Results.During the follow-u...
