Abstract
The risk estimation of secondary tumors after different types of urinary diversion with intestinal segments has as yet been possible only for ureterosigmoidostomy.We analyzed the operative records of 44 German clinics for urinary diversions performed from 1970 to 2007 and registered all reported secondary tumors up to 2009.In 17,758 urinary diversions 32 secondary tumors occurred. The tumor risk in ureterosigmoidostomy (2.58%) and cystoplasty (1.58%) is significantly higher than in other continent forms of urinary diversion (p<0.0001). The risk in orthotopic (ileo)colonic neobladders (1.29%) is significantly higher (p=0.0001) than in ileal neobladders (0.05%). The difference between ileocecal pouches (0.14%) and ileal neobladders is not significant (p=0.46).Ureterosigmoidostomies, cystoplasties, and orthotopic (ileo)colonic neobladders necessitate regular endoscopic evaluation from at least the fifth postoperative year. After ileal neobladders, conduits, and catheterizable ileocecal pouches regular routine endoscopy is not imperative.
