The results of caecocystoplasty for tuberculous bladder contracture in 30 patients over a 15-year period are presented. The operative mortality was 3.3%. Poor renal function was not a contraindication to surgery. The results indicate that caecocystoplasty provided relief of symptoms in over 90% of patients. Renal function was preserved and associated obstructive uropathy was usually relieved. Efficient cystoplasty emptying was observed in 80% of patients if detrusor resection was kept to the minimum consistent with a wide caecovesical anastomosis.

Genitourinary tuberculosis (GUTB) occurs in 15-20% cases of pulmonary tuberculosis with a prevalence of 400 per 100,000 population. Reconstructive surgery for GUTB is required for cases with grossly distorted and dysfunctional anatomy that are unlikely to regress with chemotherapy alone. In the recent past, there has been a tremendous increase in the variety of reconstructive procedures for the urinary bladder, used in the management of GUTB.

There are several therapeutic procedures for stenosis of the ureter. Ileal plasty is indicated in case of extended stenosis or those located in the pelvis when the poor quality of the bladder prevents use of a bladder flap. We report 6 surgical cases from 1977 to 1993, there were 4 women and 2 men, mean age 34 years.

Augmentation and substitution erocystoplastias are currently widely accepted techniques for the treatment of several benign and malignant diseases. Appearance of neoplasia on the various gut segments used after a latency period ranging from 5 to 25 years following initial surgery has been described. The paper presents one case of metastatic colon adenocarcinoma initially located in the region of ureteral reimplantation, in a patient with augmentation cecocystoplastia performed as a result of vesical retraction secondary to genitourinary tuberculosis.
