Purpose: To report the outcomes of patients with ureteroenteric strictures after ileal conduit urinary diversion that were managed with Resonance metallic ureteral stents.

Patients And Methods: Ten ureteroenteric strictures in patients with ileal conduits that were managed with metallic ureteral stenting were retrospectively identified. Charts were examined for patient age, anastomosis type, stricture cause, stricture laterality, complications, and follow-up.

Results: Nine of 10 (90%) cases resulted in distal stent migration. Mean time to stent migration was 21 days (range 3-60 d).

Conclusions: Placement of Resonance metallic stents in patients with ileal conduits is ineffective for management of ureteroenteric strictures because of the high rate of distal migration.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines urological complications in patients who underwent total pelvic exenteration (TPE) for locally advanced and recurrent rectal cancer, highlighting a significant occurrence of issues post-surgery.
  • A total of 128 patients were assessed, with common complications being transient acute kidney injury and urinary tract infections, resulting in an overall complication rate of 51.6%.
  • The findings indicate that the type of cancer (LARC vs RRC) and prior radiation treatment did not significantly influence the rates of urological complications.

Introduction And Objective: Radical Cystectomy (RC) is one of the most common and complex surgical procedures in urologic surgery, and benign ureteroenteric anastomosis strictures (UAS) are complications described in about 15% of patients undergoing RC with different urinary diversion (UD). The aim of this study is to evaluate and analyze risk factors related to the development of ureteral stenosis after RC.

Materials And Methods: All consecutive patients who underwent RC with ileal conduit from December 2019 to December 2022 were included.

Purpose: Ureteral stents are commonly placed intraoperatively during radical cystectomy, although their efficacy in reducing complications is unproven. We compared clinical outcomes among patients undergoing robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal ileal conduit (RARC-IC) with or without ureteral stents to determine if omission of ureteral stents affects postoperative complications.

Materials And Methods: All RARC-IC surgeries performed at our institution between November 2017 and June 2023 were reviewed.

This study aimed to evaluate the clinical utility of intravenous indocyanine green (ICG) in the context of robot-assisted cystectomy (RAC) through a systematic review and meta-analysis. The primary focus was to compare postoperative complications and perioperative outcomes between the ICG cohort and the non-ICG cohort. The primary outcome indicators were the incidence of ureteroenteric strictures and the number of strictures anastomoses.
