title: Continent urinary diversion using an ileal servomechanism sphincter.
abstract: A continent, catheterizable, physiologically responsive urinary sphincter servomechanism can be created from a short segment of ileum for use in a continent urinary diversion. Because it is easily constructed and provides dynamic continence control, this new sphincter appears to have applications in reconstructive urologic surgery.
