Various surgical techniques exist for urinary diversion post cystectomy and each have different imaging features. This diverse range of surgical procedures can make imaging interpretation difficult and so familiarity with the postoperative anatomy is essential. Multiple imaging modalities and techniques are available for the radiologist's assessment including fluoroscopic studies, computed tomography, magnetic resonance, and radionuclide imaging. Knowledge of when each of these modalities is indicated and the typical imaging appearances is essential for early identification of postoperative complications and detection of tumor recurrence. This information enables the radiologist to make an accurate and early diagnosis and subsequently guide the management pathway for these patients.
