Experience of continent urinary diversion with modified Koff's technique.
Continent abdominal neourethrostomy is a procedure in which a bladder flap from the dome is raised, converted into a tube and then brought out on the abdominal wall as a stoma, just below the umbilicus. We have done this procedure on 5 patients of different age groups and for various indications. All our patients are perfectly continent postoperatively during the day as well as night. They are doing regular self-catheterisation. They are dry in periods between self-catheterisations. The maximum follow-up is two years and six months.
