Urinary Diversion for Incontinence in Women

Abstract: Urinary incontinence is a common condition affecting up to 50% of the female population, but only a third seek medical help. Although the majority of these are satisfactorily managed with conservative or conventional surgical treatment, 10%-15% continue to remain incontinent despite intervention. Urinary diversion is a management option for this group. The different techniques of urinary diversion, their results, complications and long-term sequelae are discussed, with a review of the literature.

“…Beside this flap‐valve mechanism, ileocaecal valve plications, intussuscepted nipples, and/or hydraulic valves (i.e. Benchekroun nipple) serve as continence mechanism in different types of urinary diversion [3,13]. The overall continence rates for most of these reservoirs is ≈90%, although ‘continence’ is not clearly defined.…”

“…The continence rate of the Kock pouch was reported to be 77–89%, of the Florida pouch ≈93%, and of the Benchekroun system ≈93%. Continence rates in larger series using the Mitrofanoff principle are 91–100%[3,10,11,14].…”

“…Selected patients with intractable symptoms who are unsuitable for augmentation or neuromodulation/denervation may be managed by urinary diversion [23]. This can be performed by the construction of an ileal or colonic conduit or, more simply, the bladder can be continuously drained with a suprapubic catheter.…”
