title: Ileal low-pressure bladder replacement: Camey type II. Stapling technique and preliminary results (57 cases, 1987-1989).
abstract: In keeping with the basic principles of Camey's procedure and with a view to improve continence, we decided in 1987 to experiment with the technique of ileal low-pressure bladder replacement (Camey II). We introduced the stapling technique in order to save time and to obtain watertight, reliable sutures. 57 patients underwent a Camey II intervention following radical cystectomy. Follow-up was 3-24 months. No operation mortality was observed and only 5 perioperative complications were recorded. Continence during the day and at night increased rapidly with Camey II (50% at 3 months, 90% at 6 months). Camey II improves the patients' quality of life; the procedure is simple, fast and reliable thanks to the stapling technique.
