A 59-year-old man with a history of muscle-invasive bladder cancer status post cystectomy with neobladder creation presented to the Emergency Department with a 4-month history of lower abdominal pain, dysuria, and intermittent hematuria. He was found to have 2 massive bladder stones on CT scan, measuring 12 × 10.5 × 14 cm and 6.5 × 7.5 × 10 cm. Stones were successfully removed via open neocystolithotomy. Stones were composed of a mixture of calcium phosphate (80%) and calcium carbonate (20%).

Background: Giant neobladder lithiasis after orthotopic bladder replacement is an infrequent but important long-term complication, which should be diagnosed and treated early. If left untreated, it may eventually lead to irreversible acute kidney injury and seriously affect the quality of life of patients. Here, we present a rare case of a patient who presented with a massive neobladder stone after radical cystectomy done with orthotopic neobladder construction, followed by a challenging stone extraction process.

Uretero-enteric anastomotic strictures (UES) after robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) represent the main cause of post-operative renal dysfunction. The gold standard for treatment of UES is open uretero-ileal reimplantation (UIR), which is often a challenging and complex procedure associated with significant morbidity. We report a challenging case of long severe bilateral UES (5 cm on the left side, 3 cm on the right side) after RARC in a 55 years old male patient who was previously treated in another institution and who came to our attention with kidney dysfunction and bilateral ureteral stents from the previous two years.

Intraparenchymal renal artery aneurysms are uncommon and represent less than 10% of all renal artery aneurysms. They are caused by trauma or iatrogenic injury, and their rupture can lead to life-threatening hemorrhage. We report the case of a 48-year-old male with history of left solitary kidney and orthotopic neobladder, who presented with massive hematuria 7 days after nephrostomy tube placement because of obstructive uropathy and acute renal failure due to ureteroileal stricture.

Introduction: Uretero-enteric anastomosis with concomitant neobladder/augmentation/conduit becomes necessary when the bladder is unavailable or unfit for reimplantation or the ureters are short after high diversion or resection of lower ureteric pathology. Aiming to prevent both obstruction and reflux, we report a novel technique of sero-muscle denuded extra mural uretero-colic anastomosis.
Operative Technique: (Fig 1) The ureter was brought through the colonic mesentery.

A spontaneous fistula between a ruptured common iliac artery aneurysm and the ileal pouch neobladder is quite rare. We present the case of a 74-year-old man presenting with intense abdominal pain and massive hematuria. Computed tomography angiography revealed a ruptured common iliac artery aneurysm-ileal pouch neobladder fistula.
