title: [Rehabilitation of patients after cystectomy and construction of a continent intestinal reservoir].
abstract: Close follow-up and rehabilitation are necessary in order to ensure a good life quality for patients who have undergone cystectomy operations combined with continent reservoir operations. A questionnaire survey was carried out on 19 of our patients with continent reservoirs of different types. Furthermore a number of the leading clinics and urologists were consulted in an effort to find out a common and reliable method for rehabilitation. The most frequently encountered problems were the sexual (13 cases: 72.2%) and psychosocial adaptation (11 cases: 61.1%) among our patients. These figures were lowered to 50% (9 cases) and 33.3% (6 cases) respectively after organizing a special club for these patients in our hospital.
