We describe our technique for a new form of continent urinary diversion. This reservoir includes a detubularized segment of transverse colon to provide low pressure urine storage, tunneled ureteral reimplants to prevent reflux, and a tubularized gastric segment used as a continent catheterizable efferent limb. This technique provides a new option for continent diversion in a variety of patients.
