Background: Augmentation cystoplasty, first described by Mikulicz in 1899 involves segments of bowel, stomach or mega-ureter to increase bladder capacity in those with inadequate bladder function or lack of detrusor compliance. The most widely used bowel segment is a detubularised patch of ileum. When ileum is not suitable for augmentation, sigmoid colon is the alternative. However, only eight pregnancies after sigmoidocystoplasty have been reported without detail and clinicians may be uncertain about the effects of sigmoidocystoplasty on reproductive health and pregnancy.

Case Summary: We followed the patient from gestational week 32+3 until 6 wk after delivery. During pregnancy, our patient suffered urinary tract infection twice and had to undergo percutaneous nephrostomy drainage due to progressive hydronephrosis. Despite a dense adhesion between the uterus and neobladder, we were able to deliver a healthy baby by cesarian section in the presence of the attending urologist.

Conclusion: Augmentation cystoplasty-afflicted women can have a healthy reproductive life. Certain perioperative measures may be advisable to avoid serious surgical complications.

Objectives: To show that robot-assisted laparoscopic cutaneous continent urinary diversion (RALCCUD) is feasible and safe; however, data on clinical outcomes in adults are lacking.

Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of all adults who underwent RALCCUD between 2017 and 2022 at a single tertiary reference centre.Patient characteristics, clinical information and perioperative outcomes were recorded.

Purpose: To evaluate possible problems during pregnancy or delivery in women with pediatric bladder augmentation.

Methods: Eleven of 59 women, who had undergone bladder augmentation in our pediatric hospital during 1990-2019, had given birth in our hospital district afterwards and their obstetrical records were evaluated.

Results: Median age at first delivery was 32 years (range 26-42).

Article Synopsis
  • The ileovesicostomy (IV) is a surgical option for children with bladder dysfunction who can't manage other treatments, but long-term outcomes weren't well studied before this research.
  • A retrospective review of patient records at a children's hospital showed a low rate of complications (0.11 per year) over an average follow-up of 6.4 years, with most complications occurring much later (average 84 months).
  • The study concludes that IV not only presents a low risk of surgical issues but also helps preserve kidney function, although it has limitations like a small sample size and being retrospective.

Aims: To assess the outcomes of robotic surgery for patients with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunctions (NLUTD).

Materials And Methods: Studies evaluating the outcomes (efficacy and safety) of robot-assisted ileal conduit creation or artificial urinary sphincter (R-AUS) implantation or augmentation cystoplasty or continent urinary diversion creation in patients with NLUTD were included. The search strategy and studies selection were performed on Medline, Embase and Cochrane using the PICOS method according to the PRISMA statement (PROSPERO 2022 CRD42022333157).

Background: Augmentation cystoplasty (AC) is a useful alternative for the treatment of neuropathic bladder, although there are few studies reporting long-term results. We assess our experience over the last 30-years.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in patients with neuropathic bladder in whom AC was performed in our institution between 1990-2020.
