title: Back-flow from urinary collecting devices into the ileal conduit.
abstract: The occurrence of back-flow from urinary collecting devices into the ileal conduit was observed in 9 out of 46 patients. In 6 of them back-flow to the upper urinary tract also occurred. Nipple stomas of at least 2 cm height were found to resist back-flow into the conduit better than any flat stoma.
