Transplant Proc
May 2023
Department of Urology, Tokyo Women's Medical University, Tokyo, Japan.
Background: Kidney transplantation (KTx) after urinary tract conversion surgery is extremely difficult due to several complications. In our case, KTx was performed after multiple operative procedures, including diversion urethrostomy.
Case Report: The patient was a 46-year-old woman with a right atrophic kidney, an ectopic opening of the left ureter, and urethral dysplasia since birth.
Wound Manag Prev
November 2022
Department of Urology, Hubei General Hospital, First Affiliated Hospital of Wuhan University, Wuhan, China.
Background: Quality of life for patients after ileocystoplasty or ureterostomy due to a urinary bladder neoplasm can be limited after discharge from the hospital.
Purpose: To add the real-time communication ability of an application (app) to the daily care of this patient population to enhance communication between doctors and patients and provide improved nursing interventions, thus improving patients' self-care abilities and quality of life while decreasing stoma complications.
Methods: A total of 67 patients who underwent urinary tract diversion after total cystectomy were randomly divided into 2 groups.
Introduction: Robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal orthotopic neobladder creation is a complex surgical procedure, which is gradually becoming an alternative to open surgery.
Aim: To compare the perioperative, functional and oncological outcomes of open radical cystectomy (ORC) and RARC.
Materials And Methods: RARC with ileocystoplasty was performed in 25 patients, including 24 men.

Neuro-Uro-Andrology Hospital Universitaire R.Poincare, AP-HP, 104 bvd R. Poincare, 92380, Garches, France.
Purpose: This study aimed to determine the long-term effectiveness of augmentation ileocystoplasty (AI) associated with supra-trigonal cystectomy on clinical and urodynamic variables, and the safety of the intervention in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI).
Materials And Methods: Single-center, retrospective study of all patients with SCI who underwent AI with supra-trigonal cystectomy from January 1994, with a follow-up of more than 8 years. The primary outcome was the sustained long-term effectiveness of AI with supra-trigonal cystectomy on clinical and urodynamic variables.
Low Urin Tract Symptoms
March 2022
Japanese Red Cross Medical Center, Tokyo, Japan.
Objectives: To evaluate the outcomes of partial and total cystectomy in patients with refractory Hunner-type interstitial cystitis (HIC).
Methods: Patients with end-stage HIC who underwent supratrigonal partial cystectomy with augmentation ileocystoplasty (PC-CP) or total cystectomy with ileal conduit (TC-IC) were identified retrospectively. Changes in the 11-point numerical rating scale of bladder pain and in 7-grade quality of life (QOL) scores were evaluated.
