High Cutaneous Ureterostomy

Transuretero-ureterostomy and Cutaneous Ureterostomy as a Form of Urinary Diversion in Children

“…Cutaneous ureterostomy has, in our experience, and in that of others [4][5][6][7], been most successful when the ureters arc thick-walled and dilated. Patients who possess this prerequisite have been found to be suitable candidates for urinary diversion by means of transuretero-ureterostomy with cutaneous ureterostomy.…”

Supravesical urinary diversion: A comparison between cutaneous ureterostomy and heal conduit

“…Recently, there have been several techniques designed t o prevent distal ureteral stenosis (Lapides, 1962; Lloyd et al, 1962) and there appears to be increased interest in this procedure. I n addition, DeVries (1955) and Humphreys (1956) emphasized that large hypertrophied thick-walled ureters could be transplanted to the skin without the danger of distal ureteral necrosis and stomal stenosis, and cutaneous ureterostomy is now frequently done in the presence of dilated ureters.…”

“…Dès lors, la partie inférieure de la paroi abdo minale se plisse et repose sur les cuisses. Il faudra donc faire l'abou chement plus haut que de coutume, sans pour autant remonter jusqu'au niveau de l'ureterostomie cutanée haute [13] («High cutaneous ureterostomy»). La détermination de l'endroit exact de l'abouchement se fera le mieux en faisant porter l'appareil collecteur maintenu par une ceinture pendant plusieurs heures et dans toutes les attitudes habituelles de l'enfant.…”
