title: Alternative techniques for a continent urinary reservoir.
abstract: A modification of the Gilchrist procedure is used to create a continent urinary reservoir that provides reliable continence and antireflux mechanisms. The tubular form of the cecum is altered by a patch or reconfiguration to prevent bolus contractions of the reservoir. The procedure offers a choice of locations of the reservoir and stoma in most patients. Each step of the procedure uses techniques already familiar to urologists.
