Abstract
Continent cutaneous urinary diversion can be employed after cystectomy when orthotopic diversion is not appropriate and a continent diversion is desired. It is a technically challenging operation and requires careful pre-operative and intra-operative planning as well as an experienced surgeon and ancillary staff. Overall, continent cutaneous diversion (CCD) carries a high rate of long-term continence and patient satisfaction, and is an important and widely accepted part of the urologist’s armamentarium. Many different types of CCD and efferent channels have been described with variable success. Complications are largely related to the stoma and catheterizable channel. These complications can usually be managed outside of the operating room although occasionally re-operation is required.
