Abstract: PURPOSE: Simple diversions are underutilized, mostly for unfit, bedridden, and very self-limited patients requiring palliative surgical management due to life-threatening conditions. Experience with cutaneous ureterostomy (CU) as palliative urinary diversion option for unfit bladder cancer patients is reported. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed clinical and operative parameters of 41 patients who underwent CU following RC in three specialized Cancer Centers from July/2005 to July/2010. Muscle-invasive disea… Show more

“…In general, continent diversion techniques with formation of a neobladder are used in stable patients, while simpler ileal conduits are favored in elderly or compromised patients that are considered unfit for more extensive procedures. Cutaneous ureterostomy has been reported as an alternative to ileal conduit in debilitated persons, reducing surgical trauma and risk of complications . Cutaneous ureterostomy avoids surgical and metabolic complications such as small bowel obstruction, paralytic ileum, delirium, and delayed ambulation that can be seen after ureteroenteric anastomoses …”
