Abstract
Objective To improve the understanding of ileal conduit urinary diversion stomal varicose bleeding.Methods 3 male cases of ileal conduit urinary diversion stomal varicose bleeding were reported.The pathogenic mechanism,clinical features,diagnosis and treatment of this disease were reviewed and discussed with the relevant literature review.The ages were 59,45 and 68.All of them had ileal conduit urinary diversion because of muscle invasive bladder cancer.Ileal conduit urinary diversion stomal varicose bleeding were found at 6 years,6 months and 2 months after surgery.The bleeding was intermittent.All the stomal varicose were found in physical examination.The laboratory examinations showed abnormities of liver functions in all three cases.Image studies showed one with liver metastasis and two with liver cirrhosis.Portal venous hypertension was considered as the cause of bleeding.Results We controlled the bleeding by suturing the first patient's varicose.The patient was died 3 months later because of the advanced cancer.For the second patient,we controlled the bleeding by compressing the varicose.By the meantime,we reduced the portal venous hypertension with medication.The stomal varicose bleeding stopped when the liver function and the portal venous hypertension improved 2 months later.The third patient's stomal varicose were injected with sclerosants.There was no mnore stomal varicose bleeding within half-year follow-up.Conclusions Ileal conduit urinary diversion stomal varicose bleeding is usually found in the patients who have portal venous hypertension because of liver cirrhosis or liver metastasis.To control the bleeding,we can decrease the patient's portal venous hypertension.To control hemorrhage,we can use suturing,compressing,and sclerotherapy,which is an optional treatment.
