Objective: To compare the incidence rate of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and associated pathogens between patients with ileal conduit and patients with orthotopic neobladder urinary diversion.
Patients And Methods: The medical records of 179 patients treated with radical cystectomy between 2006 and 2011 were reviewed and data pertaining to postoperative UTI were collected. UTI incidence was reported at 3 months' intervals and compared by diversion type. Preoperative predictors of UTI were evaluated with Cox regression analyses.
Results: The study cohort included 130 patients with ileal conduit and 49 patients with orthotopic neobladder. Patients with a neobladder were younger (P <.001). Median follow-up was 38 months (IQR [interquartile range], 11-63). Median time from surgery to first infection was 1.5 months (IQR, 1-12.5) for patients with a neobladder and 11 months (IQR, 2.5-27) for patients with a conduit (P = .04). During the first 3 months after surgery, 29% of the patients with a neobladder and 8% of the patients with ileal conduit had a UTI episode (P = .001). Rates of UTI did not differ during subsequent follow-up. Diversion type was not associated with UTI on multivariable analysis. Escherichia coli was the most common pathogen in patients with a conduit (58%), and Klebsiella spp. in patients with a neobladder (29%).
Conclusion: The risk of UTI is significantly higher in patients with a neobladder during the first 3 months after surgery and comparable to patients with ileal conduit during subsequent follow-up. These findings may facilitate preoperative counseling regarding the expected risk of UTI after urinary diversion.

Intussusception in adults is rare and poses a diagnostic challenge, often due to neoplastic causes. Metastatic melanoma is known to spread to the gastrointestinal tract, especially the small intestine. We report the case of a patient with obstructive symptoms and a history of metastatic melanoma.

Introduction: Clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) has significant advantages over indwelling catheters. To facilitate CIC, a continent catheterizable channel (CCC) to the bladder is required in some cases. The Mitrofanoff appendicovesicostomy (APV) is considered the gold standard for pediatric CCC creation.

Purpose: To investigate the association of diabetes mellitus and metformin use with metabolic acidosis risk after radical cystectomy (RC) and urinary diversion for bladder cancer.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective cohort study used TriNetX Research Network data. Patients undergoing RC with continent diversion or ileal conduit for bladder cancer were identified using International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) and ICD-10 Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) codes.

Background: This study aims to report the experience over 40 years and outcomes of 5070 patients who underwent a pelvic pouch procedure.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained IPAA database- (1983 - 2022) was performed. Patients were stratified based on the diagnosis: ulcerative colitis (UC), indeterminate colitis (IC), familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), inflammatory bowel disease-dysplasia, Crohn's colitis (CD), and others.

Background And Purpose: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients display genetic polymorphisms in toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) genes, contributing to dysregulate enteric nervous system (ENS) circuits with increased levels of 5-HT and alteration of the neuroimmune crosstalk. In this study, we investigated the impact of TLR4 signalling on mouse ENS dysfunction caused by dextran sulphate sodium (DSS)-induced ileitis.
Experimental Approach: Male C57BL/6J (wild-type [WT]) and TLR4 mice (10 ± 2 weeks old) received 2% DSS in drinking water for 5 days and then were switched to 3-day regular drinking water.
