Abstract
Ileal conduit diversion has been evaluated as one of the most established method of urinary diversion after radical pelvic operation. Although results and problems of ileal conduit diversion are seen in world literature, there were few reports in Japan. We, herein, reported the early and late complications of 130 patients with ileal conduit diversion performed at Keio University Hospital for the past 12 years. In the present study, 96% of the patients had the bladder cancers. Early complications were in 35 cases and late complications were in 43 cases in this series. Our special reference to urolithiasis as a late complication revealed that urea splitting organisms in urinary tract, alkalinization of urine and pre-operative urological complications were concerned.
