A Technique of Ileocystoplasty for Bladder Enlargement

Search this article

Abstract

A new technique for ileocystoplasty is described. The abdomen is opened through an abdominal median incision, and approximately 25cm of the ileum are isolated together with the mesentery attached to it. The isolated ileum is then bent into a U-shape and the ileal walls are incised and sutured so as to form an open bag. Following the incision of the bladder wall, this newly formed bag is anastomosed to the bladder. Thus, an enlarged bladder is artificially formed.<br> This technique was employed with success in four cases of contracted tuberculous bladder and in one cases of neurogenic bladder.
