What is Studer pouch?
Once the bladder is removed, it is then essential to create a different route to eliminate urine out of the body. This is called a urinary diversion. The most common types of urinary diversions are Ileal Conduit, Indiana Pouch, and Neobladder (Studer Pouch). Each urinary diversion requires special care and management.
What is the most common type of urinary diversion?
A urostomy or ileal conduit is the most common type of non-continent urinary diversion operation. A urostomy is the most common type of urinary diversion operation. During the operation, the surgeon will make a hole in your abdominal wall. This hole is known as a stoma.
What is stoma and urinary diversion care?
Ileal conduit urinary diversion: A segment of the intestine directs urine through a stoma into an external collecting bag. With this procedure, the ureters (the tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder) drain freely into part of the ileum (the last segment of the small intestine).
Which is the best urinary diversion?
The ileal conduit is the simplest, most time-tested urinary diversion that requires the least operative time and arguably is associated with the fewest complications. A short piece of ileum is anastamosed (i.e. connected) to the ureters and brought onto the skin.
What is an orthotopic neobladder?
Neobladder reconstruction, also called orthotopic neobladder reconstruction, is one option for urinary diversion. During the procedure, your surgeon uses a piece of intestine to create a new bladder that allows you to urinate voluntarily and maintain continence.
What is an Indiana pouch bladder?
An Indiana pouch is a surgically-created reservoir used to internally store and eliminate urine. This allows patients who have had their urinary bladders removed to empty their urine with an intermittent catheter.
What is the most common urostomy procedure?
Type of urostomies The most common method is called an ileal conduit. Here are the basics of this procedure: The surgeon removes a short segment of the small intestine (ileum). This will be used as a pipeline – or conduit – for urine to flow out of the body.
What is distal Loopogram?
A loopogram is a diagnostic test that is performed on the section of bowel that functions in place of the urinary bladder. Patients who do not have a bladder or have a malfunctioning bladder may undergo a surgical procedure called a urinary diversion to reroute the flow of urine through an opening in the abdomen.
Which is an incontinent urinary diversion?
Incontinent urinary diversions is used to continuously drain urine from the body through a stoma. The urine is collected in a small bag worn outside of the body (called a urostomy bag, appliance or pouching system). This type of diversion is used more often for people who are older or in poor health.
