Abstract

Bladder augmentation with mixed enteric segments is being used with increasing frequency. In addition, the use of stomach has been reported to result in fewer electrolyte abnormalities, less stone formation, decreased mucous production and decreased incidence of urinary tract infections. However, the disadvantage of using stomach for composite bladder augmentation, most notably the hematuria-dysuria syndrome, has placed it in disfavor at many institutions. We report a case of vesicointestinal fistula after combined ileal and gastric bladder augmentation.
